umlaute

I have written this short script to correct vowel mutation (Umlaut) errors in filenames.
This errors typically occur when you copy files to a system with UTF-8 charset from a system using another charset.
One typical case is when a Windows-Client transfers files via FTP on a server using UTF-8.
Such errors can't be corrected using convmv.
