For dealing with non-Western, non ISO-Latin-1, characters, I use the
following variables:
i = "[a-zà-öø-ÿß\"]" # lower-case ISO and "
I = "[A-ZÀ-ÖØ-Þ]" # upper-case ISO
x = "[A-Za-zÀ-ÖØ-öø-ÿ\"]" # mixed-case ISO and "
X = "[^A-Za-zÀ-ÖØ-öø-ÿ]" # non ISO values
Y = "[^A-Za-zÀ-ÖØ-öø-ÿ:]" # non ISO values and :
I use the " for ASCII-fied umlauts, such as u" or "u.
For what it is worth...

Estimates are that one-third to two-thirds of animal and plant species will
disappear in forseeable future! AWFUL!
