 That still doesn't remove multiple spaces, ie. whitespace. Some regexp
 wizard kid could tell how the whitespace is replaced with a single space.
 I'd say that converting the spcial chars would be easy too with regular
 expressions.
 
 The thing is I'm all thumbs with regexp so I can only recommend using it but
 I have no idea how it would work ;)
