"Find by attribute" plugin UnicodeEncodeError

Question

This is the error message, when launching the plugin. I hope this is the right place, where to report this kind of message.

An error has occured while executing Python code:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/saabrs/.qgis//python/plugins/findbyattr/Findbyattr.py", line 66, in run tempname = str(name).rstrip('01234567890') UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0161' in position 5: ordinal not in range(128)
