I have been running into a series of PG books encoded in charset=iso-8859-1. The emdash is encoded as #8212 followed by a soft hyphen #173. I go into the PG file in the editor and replace these with #151.

I would like to add this to the Book Cleaner. The emdash seems to be handled by 2.bcf showing:
find what: uni(137)
replace with: uni(151)

I must be mis-interpreting something because I cannot reference uni(137) with the endash.

Would someone point me in the right direction?
