Two situations: - iso-accentuate: old latex files (latex 209) which contain either naci'on or da"s which at that time worked (but today it does not). So the easiest solution is to call iso-accentuate to convert it to nación and daß. - iso-deaccentuate: given a huge list of Spanish family names which contain ñ ó etc, and from which I want to generate directories. So the easiest way for me to deal with it is to run iso-deaccentuate (not iso-unaccentuate which would result in ~n). No maybe I missed it, but I don't know of any other program doing that.
