Fortunately the Australians use no umlauts and Accents but the
Austrians do.
Darn when are you guys ramping up on your geography lessons :-)

Hello
As I received this message as a personal one, I tried to respond the
same but my message was rejected as:

So I post it here.
Hello Mike,
(a) why are you sending this message to myself ?
I'm not the one which made the error. It's Jon Pugh in its message :

I'm hanging out for the Unicode-aware case changers. Although now I see
someone is stealing your terminology for them...
Yeah, those extensive Australian umlauts and accents would require
that. ;)
OK, this spurred me to some action. I'll look for the algorithm to
upper and lower unicode properly and incorporate it. I've already
removed the old ASCII scripting addition calls in lieu of "id of
character" and "character id" and it does indeed fail the upper and
lower process with accented characters.
Of course, proper unicode case changing is quite simply, HARD.
Looking into it, the case mapping file is over a megabyte and there
are numerous rules which need to be implemented.
