this is exactly what I was looking for.  Thank you for pointing me in
the right direction!  However, I'm still unable to make it work.  When
you pointed out the hex representation to me, it turned on the light and
now I know I can paste those characters in multi edit and look at it in
hex mode if I'm not exactly sure what a character is.  This one is "ED"
as you said.  So here are the things I have tried, nothing works, so I
am doing something wrong.  Perhaps I should give in to the tricky
spamsters and let this go but I hate to do that.

*I tried this based on what Justin said
/pen[\xCC-\xCF\xEC-\xEF]s|p3n[\xCC-\xCF\xEC-\xEF]s/

and as david suggested I tried it with just the character in question

/\í/

/\xED/

none of these are picking it up.  Wondering if I am formatting this
wrong.

If you use backslashed escape codes it should work -- e.g.

man iso_8859_1

notes these i chars:

314     204     CC      <CC>    LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH GRAVE
315     205     CD      <CD>    LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH ACUTE
316     206     CE      <CE>    LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH CIRCUMFLEX
317     207     CF      <CF>    LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DIAERESIS
354     236     EC      <EC>    LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH GRAVE
355     237     ED      <ED>    LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH ACUTE
356     238     EE      <EE>    LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH CIRCUMFLEX
357     239     EF      <EF>    LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH DIAERESIS

so [\xCC-\xCF\xEC-\xEF] should catch all those.  (in ISO-8859
charsets at least.)  Basically, \xNN where NN is the hex representation.
