## About

An easy to use solution for converting all accented characters to their corresponding non-accented ASCII characters.

## Syntax

``` js
import removeAccents from 'remove-accents';

```

#### inputString

## Usage

Call `removeAccents()` by passing the string you wish to remove accents from, and you will get the non-accented string as result.

``` js
const input = 'ÀÁÂÃÄÅ';
const output = removeAccents(input);

console.log(output); // AAAAAA
```

## Methods

The exported function also has helper methods.

#### has

Determine if a string has any accented characters.

``` js
import removeAccents from 'remove-accents';

console.log(removeAccents.has('ÀÁÂÃÄÅ')); // true
console.log(removeAccents.has('ABC'));    // false
```

#### remove

``` js
import removeAccents from 'remove-accents';

console.log(removeAccents.remove('ÀÁÂÃÄÅ')); // AAAAAA
```
