Iconv exists for windows too. (called iconv.dll) I am using it in my 
Synapse. unit synaicnv.pas is interface for iconv.dll, and synachar.pas 
is unit with various charset transpation functions. You can use it on 
windwos or linux/unix. Delphi, kylix, Freepascal. Just download Synapse 
and use it. :-) (You can found iconv.dll on Synapse web page too...)
