Yes. That depends on the implemention. If your character is kept in
memory as a 16 bits type, that's simply an short integer with the
hex value 0x4321, or decimal 17185. (Whether this is signed or
unsigned, little-endian or big-endian doesn't matter.) Now if you
want to convert this, you call the appropriate conversion routine
from the CVTUTF library.
E.g. if you need UTF-8 output, you supply the ConvertUTF16toUTF8
function with pointers to this character and your output buffer, and
you end up with the bytes 0xE4, 0x8C, 0xA1 in your output buffer.
You can then dump this buffer to the file you mentioned.
However, you have said this is not what you want!
So what is it that you do want?
