Re: Get and substitute filenames of filepathes that contain umlauts/special chars

[email protected],
I did understand your code and still changed some commands before 
(regarding "." and "\.").
Thanks for clarifying the difference between "h" and "H".

I downloaded your file and did a simple test with the "y" command.
UnxUtils sed v407 is available here (check UnxUpdates):
http://www.weihenstephan.de/~syring/win32/

Indeed and in comparison with your version,
it's not possible to use dec or hex values either on the LHS or RHS
with UnxUtils sed 407 using the "y" command.
This seems to be a "bug" I never discovered before.
Your code works as expected with the version you use.
With UnxUtils sed your code must be changed (regarding the "y" command).

Snip:
;s/[ÄÜÖ]/\0e/g ;s/ß/ss/g ;y/ÄÜÖäüö&\d183/AOUauo+-/
(changed a typo mistake LHS "aüö" RHS "aou")
...is much more clever than mine and saves some bytes for length of my 
batch file.

Due to the fact that I'm a frequent user of sed only,
I wonder if one of the two codes provided by you and Thierry has some 
drawbacks?

Thanks very much
Zharif
