Convert Western European Chars to Unaccented

System

An application has to create a folder structure based on data in a DCR. The DCR may contain Western European characters (accented) which need to be converted to unaccented characters. Does anyone know of a module or quickie that can help me with this? Seems like a pretty straightforward thing, I just don't know where to look.

I know about http://search.cpan.org/~ldachary/Text-Unaccent-1.01/Unaccent.pm but I can't install modules.

I have found

but would hope for something that replaces certain characters with multiple characters (like http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/251871).

hmm .. I would grab the src code of the module and extract the required methods.

Do you want to convert this characters into HTML entities?

So far I've been doing this manually with s///, but it is a pain to code all of the characters and do the mapping.

The problem is, the source code for that module apparently requires some .dll/.so, there are no methods in it. Which makes me realize how easy it should be for Interwoven to make the C APIs available directly to Perl without forking CLTs but that's another issue.

I actually need single letters, not the HTML entities. As far as HTML::Entities, have you checked that module? I think I had good luck with it in the past. I think it might even ship with TeamSite.

I use HTML::Entities to encode char's into it's entity equivalent, easy to use and does ship with TeamSite. I'm not familiar with accented/unaccented char's, so don't know if it'll help ya.

Have you looked into Unicode::Map and Unicode: Smiley Frustrated

tring? I use them to convert all content to UTF-8 during the presentation build process. Maybe TechNote 48832: Handling Euro Characters will help.
