Search pattern for non-ASCII alphabetic characters

by Hermann Peifer <peifer@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Feb 3, 2008 at 06:42 PM

Hi,

Occasionally, I'd like to search for non-ASCII alphabetic characters in 
UTF-8 encoded text documents.

In the absence of an appropriate character class (at least I wouldn't 
know of any), I do something like:

awk '/[ÀÁÂÃÄÅ ...and so on... ŸŹźŻżŽž]/{ action }'

This is perhaps not the smartest solution. Any better idea?

TIA. Hermann
