I also see your sed statements work off a-z, 0-9; - how would one account for characters that are shift + numbers as well (possibly) being in the words such as '#$%-' while unsure of their exact order therein? Can you block special characters like [!-&] much like the alpha [a-z]? Does one have to do so in correct ASCII order?

I appreciate all of your help!
