Although I wrote the suite, if you've got Frontier 7, it might be easier to use the verb string.latinToMac(s) (and it's converse string.macToLatin(s)). 

Since that verb brings the functionality of the latinToMac.convert UCMD over to the Windows side, it's probably better to stick with Userland supported/documented tools if you're starting from scratch.

(who was always confused about the latinToMac verb until he read the new docs (http://docserver.userland.com/string/latinToMac)
