i have made a script, that can recursively rename files to get rid of special chars, etc. in filenames

e.g.: before:

THIS i.s my file (1).txt

after running the script:

This-i-s-my-file-1.txt

Ok. here it is:

But: when i wanted to test it "fully", with filenames like this:

¤¥¦§¨©ª«¬®¯°±²³´µ¶·¸¹º»¼½¾¿ÀÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÊËÌÎÏÐÑÒÔÕ×ØÙUÛUÝÞßàâãäåæçèêëìîïðñòôõ÷øùûýþÿ.txt

it fails:

$ sh renamer.sh directorythathasthefiles

...and so on

so "mv" can't handle special chars.. :\

i worked on it for many hours..

does anyone has a working one? [that can handle chars [filenames] in that 2 lines too?]
