I tried to think about a counterpoint, some case for where the current (non-globasciiranges) behaviour would be useful, but I can't come up with any. At least the part where [a-z] matches A, but not Z makes it a bit useless. If you're considering special-casing just those three, I'd suggest adding a-f and A-F too, for patterns matching hex digits. So yeah, +1 from me. -- Ilkka Virta / itvirta@iki.fi
