What ?

Features

• All accented letters will be converted to same letters without accent
• Special characters will be deleted
• Underscores will be replaced by hyphens

Compatibility for MAC owners

On MAC, you can also create an accented character with the combination of ` and the wanted letter. This has the effect to create a character with a special filename system encoding format which is not sanitized. An issue is open about this.
