I am tasked with generating an email address for new users in our environment who may have special characters (such as an umlaut and accents) in their full names.  While some email systems can handle these characters I am being told to generate email addresses that can convert these characters to a standard ASCII format.  So for example, John Señior would be created as john.senior@...  and Jane Fraü would be created as jane.frau@...  Has anyone found a regex expression or library that can handle such a requirement.  UPDATE - I am planning on performing the replacement in PowerShell, but could use any Windows compiled libraries as well.
I'm trying to convert some strings that are in French Canadian and basically, I'd like to be able to take out the French accent marks in the letters while keeping the letter. (E.g. convert é to e, so crème brûlée would become creme brulee)  What is the best method for achieving this?
TV identification: Short-lived TV show about a time traveller with a super-computer disguised as a credit-card It might have only been a pilot or a made for TV movie, but I remember a male time traveller who was for some reason in 90s US from a semi-distant future. He had in his possession a super-computer disguised as a regular credit card, which could hack things and I think spoke to him in a female voice.   Note: Not Quantum Leap - the time traveller and "credit card computer" might be keywords that people would hit upon, but 'Ziggy' the computer in QL was non-speaking, operated by a hologram and did not resemble a credit card - this one had its own voice and was disguised as a CC. Link to a note in Apple Notes, from another note In Apple Notes on the Mac, is it possible to reference a note from within another note (by way of hyperlink)? So, for example, if I had two notes:  Thoughts about pastries Pastries are great. Truly wonderful treats. But you know what my favorite types of pastries are? Donuts. I've even made a list of the types of [donuts I've eaten].  and  Donuts I've Eaten Chocolate, Glazed, Frosted, Encrusted…  How could I link the text [donuts I've eaten] from the first note to the second note? How to stop "Monkey Test" and "Time Service" apps When I long-press the "home" button to close all apps, there is an app named "time service" with android symbol and another named "monkey test" that are always open.   How to stop this? How do I give myself an item that can only be placed on a block with a certain damage value? Travelling without a visa after passport was stolen What is the difference between the "...", '...', $'...', and $"..." quotes in the shell? Sometimes I see shell scripts use all of these different ways of quoting some text: &quot;...&quot;, '...', $'...', and $&quot;...&quot;. Why are there so many different kinds of quote being used? Do they behave differently or affect what I can do inside them? Elsarticle - Abstract two columns wide A group is generated by two elements of order $2$ is infinite and non-abelian Is it possible to get Inkscape's bucket fill to entirely fill regions marked by lines? I've noticed there's a slight gap between shapes and lines in which bucket-fill is applied (to the enclosed areas found therein) and the colour fill in Inkscape, is there any way of removing this gap (besides the older-fashion manual way by manipulating the borders of the bucket fill, which is very tedious)? I am working on plugin to Drupal Commerce, and I started getting this error:   DatabaseTransactionOutOfOrderException: in DatabaseConnection-&gt;rollback() (line 1058 of /Library/WebServer/Documents/includes/database/database.inc).   Can anyone shed some light on what this error means? If I install a fresh drupal and reinstall my plugin, is that likely to clear things up?   Any advice?   Thanks! How to print the full NumPy array, without truncation? Distribution of the digits of Pi How to identify a downvoting stalker Possible Duplicate:          Yeah I got a deranged stalker that keeps downvoting me.  Anyone know how going about identifying such individuals?  (I just got 4 all at the same time just after making a new post).      that was the question I originally asked. Please tell me, what is so wrong with it ? I'm a fourth year undergraduate student in a university in the U.S., and this is my last semester. I have already applied to graduate schools, and I'm currently awaiting responses. Since I have already finished all my requirements and am ready to graduate, I wanted to go part time this semester. I am aware of how it affects my financial aid; however, I do not know if it has an effect on my admittance to graduate school. I do not mean whether or not I get accepted (the decisions will happen without knowledge of my current semester), but whether I am eligible to attend graduate school if I have been part time for a semester. That is, will there be any potential issues when the schools that have accepted me see my final transcript and see I was part time? Is there a universal answer to this? Or should I contact each school individually and ask about their policy?   Also, are there any other potential issues with going part time that I haven't mentioned? Anything noteworthy I might have missed? PGFPlots: Understanding how to draw plots on different layers and arrange them Solutions of bivariate cubic Diophantine equation The problem is what are the integer solutions to  $$7x^2 - 40xy + 7y^2 = (|(x - y)| + 2)^3$$  I only got $x - y = 4 (\mod 13)$. Also, how to solve it? Prove that if $a \mid b$ then $\gcd(a,b) = |a|$ Automatically put PGFPlots xtick scale label in x axis label Evaluating $\int_0^\infty \sin x^2\, dx$ with real methods? I have seen the Fresnel integral  $$\int_0^\infty \sin x^2\, dx = \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{8}}$$  evaluated by contour integration and other complex analysis methods, and I have found these methods to be the standard way to evaluate this integral.  I was wondering, however, does anyone know a real analysis method to evaluate this integral?
