Well I've been called a Turkey more than a few times, but I don't know much Turkish!

Problem is it's typed with a german keyboard layout, which is missing those special turkish characters...
I think that makes it impossible for automated translations...

You could try an online keyboard for entry if you have any new text to deal with later or can get that retyped - a quick search suggests: http://ok-board.com/turkish.htm .

I do know (in case anyone is interested) that you have to watch I/i when transforming case, because 'i' with and without a dot are different letters in both lower and upper case and the naive bit-manipulation mapping will change the letter as well as changing the case, since the Roman characters are mapped as such in all Unicode encodings.
