Missing Functionality

We'd need more info to help. I don't see anything wrong with the handler 
but we'd need to see the functions. What exactly fails? Do you see the 
dialog? Have you put answer statements in to see how far the handler gets 
before failing? You can also log to the Console if you don't want to use 
answer.

There's nothing in what you posted that would require any additional 
libraries, but I don't know what the functions might need. The convert 
command doesn't need a library and is pretty reliable.
