Two comments about Text::StripAccents:
- at the time that I uploaded it to CPAN there was nothing else that did the job (well, it was about the same time as another module, as I discovered later), it was something I needed to do fairly frequently, and I had the simple code lying around.
- I've learned quite a bit since then, both about coding and the standards that are expected of CPAN modules.
Since it appears to have been in some way at least slightly useful - if only because it doesn't require a compiler, I'll revisit it and make it more efficient and better documented.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
