FYI (mostly off topic), I think the hyphen-minus is considered both an ASCII char as well as Unicode.
######### START MOSTLY OFF TOPIC REFERENCE #########
Reference:
Quote:
The hyphen-minus (-) is a character used in digital documents and computing to represent a hyphen () or a minus sign (').
It is present in Unicode as code point U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS; it is also in ASCII with the same value.
Where is the hyphen in duckduckgo.com ?
My understanding is that hyphens used in domain names are generally coded in ASCII, FYI.
Reference:
Quote:
The characters allowed in a domain name include letters (abc), numbers (123), and dashes/hyphens (---). No spaces are allowed and the domain name can't begin or end with dash/hyphen.
In the case above (in a permitted domain name char), the hyphen is considered ASCII.
Anyway, this is not germane to your question, which is related to GTK applications.
######### END MOSTLY OFF TOPIC REFERENCE #########
My best guess is that your GTK application has an input filter which checks for non-ASCII chars and pops up an error message when non-ASCII is detected.
The way around this, off the top of my head, is of course to look at the source code, verify the code which is detecting the non-ASCII char (and giving the error pop up) and then comment that code out and recompile and test it.

MB_STRTOUPPER(3) 1 MB_STRTOUPPER(3)mb_strtoupper - Make a string uppercaseSYNOPSIS
string mb_strtoupper (string $str, [string $encoding = mb_internal_encoding()])
DESCRIPTION
Returns $str with all alphabetic characters converted to uppercase.
PARAMETERS
o $str
- The string being uppercased.
o $encoding
-The $encoding parameter is the character encoding. If it is omitted, the internal character encoding value will be used.

UNICODE
For more information about the Unicode properties, please see http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr21/.
By contrast to strtoupper(3), 'alphabetic' is determined by the Unicode character properties. Thus the behaviour of this function is not
affected by locale settings and it can convert any characters that have 'alphabetic' property, such as a-umlaut (a).

Example #1
mb_strtoupper(3) example
<?php
$str = "Mary Had A Little Lamb and She LOVED It So";
$str = mb_strtoupper($str);
echo $str; // Prints MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB AND SHE LOVED IT SO
?>
Example #2
mb_strtoupper(3) example with non-Latin UTF-8 text
<?php
$str = "Txiotn a
nE Baos unuvn yn, dpaokeCei unp vw0po kuvs";
