in thread Chicanery Needed to Handle Unicode Text on Microsoft Windows

open it in Notepad, and save it as 'ANSI' instead of 'Unicode' before my script will work right.

You probably shouldn't do that :) save as UTF-8 instead

iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 < in > out

piconv -f UTF-16LE -t UTF-8 < in > out
