regex for chars 192 to 255 John 02-29-2008

 Hi

Is there a character class like [a-zA-Z] for accented characters that lie
between ASCII 192 and 255 (excluding 215 and 247)?

If not, what is the easiest way to match those, other that specifying them
indvidually?

Regards
John

ASCII defines characters from 0-127, so 192 and 255 are not in ASCII.

Thanks. I should have said extended ASCII
Regards

Which is highly ambigious in itself because first of all it is used to
describe different things, e.g. characters that are not ASCII, latin
characters that are not ASCII, ASCII characters plus latin characters that
are not ASCII. And second it doesn't specify the encoding.

I'd rather you said "Code Page 1252", "Windows Latin-1", "ISO-8859-1" or
the name of some other specific character set/encoding. :-)
