Sorry...I somehow missed the key *uppercase* bit of that, and somehow got it in my head that you just wanted unicode letters, not numbers. Please pardon the brain-blink. I can't find anything in Python's regexp docs that do what you want. Vim's regexp engine has a "uppercase characters" and "lowercase characters" atoms, but it seems there's no counterpart to them in Python. Thus, you may have to take a combined attack of regexps+isupper().
Using isupper() has some peculiar side-effects in that it only checks uppercase-able characters, so >>> "1A".isupper() True which may or may not be what you wanted. The previously shot-from-the-hip regexp stuff will help you filter out any non-alphabetic unicode characters, which can then be passed in turn to isupper() -tkc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
