special character u'\u014d'

So, the whole point of coming up with this is because a processing script is returning:

File "encodings/mac_roman.pyc", line 12, in encode
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\u014d' in position 31: character maps to <undefined>

I found a thread on their support site that brackets botch the script. So, the above solution remove the brackets and other characters. It's started happening again and I think there more to this:

Quote:
u'\u014d'

I found this:

But how can I implement that special character into the removal script?
