Unicode Transmuter is a batch conversion utility for plain text files. You can add a
bunch of files from various places, and convert them from non-unicode encodings
to Unicode.
Supported Encodings (first table)
Each file is copied to a 'unicode_files' directory, so you don't need to worry about
potentially ruinning your files should something go wrong.

It's also in its very early stages, though more useable than this page.
