Many filenames contain accented characters, e.g. French filenames might contain à and á, whereas English language speakers are happy to use the Latin alphabet. Bulk Rename Utility provides a facility to replace accented characters with non-accented characters.
If you are using a Unicode build of Bulk Rename Utility (Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista) then you should find that virtually all accented characters are converted into their non-accented equivalents (à becomes a, etc.).
If you are using Windows 98 then this has to be done using a hard-coded list of characters, which is as follows:
