    # File lib/noosfero/core_ext/string.rb, line 39
39:   def to_slug
40:     transliterate.downcase.gsub(/^\d+/,'').gsub( /[^a-z0-9~\s:;+=_.-]/, '').gsub(/[\s:;+=_-]+/, '-').gsub(/-$/, '').gsub(/^-/, '').to_s
41:   end
transliterate()

transliterate a string (assumed to contain UTF-8 data) into ASCII by replacing non-ascii characters to their ASCII.

The transliteration is, of course, lossy, and its performance is poor. Don‘t abuse this method.
