That does make more sense, so something like [bytes2utf8], etc.

utf8 is always a list of bytes. if you get values >255 than it is not utf-8; do you mean unicode points?

Assumedly. There's already [wchars2bytes] in pdstring, which will convert wchar_t codepoints to a locale-dependent byte-string, but this is very system dependent. the function u8_toucs() from s_utf8.c should perform *exactly* a unicode-codepoint-string to utf8-byte-string conversion; the function u8_wc_toutf8() converts a single (unicode) character.
