I've got a doubt. I'm not very good with regular expressions, so I'm using this template for checking if there are non-ascii characters in a title:

Code:

program:
	title=field('title');
	aux=transliterate(title);
	if (title!=aux)
	then
		'true'
	else
		'false'
	fi

The template is returning true if there is a 'é' in the title, so it's fine. However, I'm using it as advanced rule for adding an icon to a column and the icon is not appearing. Is there is any issue with the template, the advanced rule, my way of doing it? I'm using calibre 7.23 (all the following versions have a mistake that affects my way of working) and windows 10 64 bits.
