uppercasing accented characters, mappings and \WORD

[Mojca Miklavec <mojca.miklavec.lists@gmail.com>]

Hello,

If I use the latin2 encoding (il2), \WORD works OK if I simply type 
accented characters. Under UTF-8, uppercasing \zcaron also works OK, but 
fails if I simply type 'ž'. I saw the \definemapping[il2] and I can 
write a mapping for windows-1250 regime as well, but how exactly is this 
done for unicode, where the character codes exceed 255?

Could perhaps alternatively \WORD, \defineactivetoken or any other part 
of code be extended, so that \WORD would be happy with the typed 
accented characters as well? \Zcaron is already defined somewhere to be 
the uppercased \zcaron, so defining the same for every single 
regime/encoding manually seems redundant and error-prone.

Thank you,
	Mojca

(I don't have any editor to support latin2 under windows (except 
Mozilla), even for unicode vim and Windows are fighting against each 
other, so windows-1250 is the only reasonable thing that I can use 
comfortably.)
