DESCRIPTION

This module downgrades strings of text to match

  /^[-._A-Za-z0-9]*$/

or, to be more exact

  /^([-.A-Za-z0-9]([-._A-Za-z0-9]*[-.A-Za-z0-9])?)?$/

This makes the return values safe to be used as URL fragments

or as file names on many file systems where whitespace

and characters outside of the Latin alphabet are undesired

or problematic.
