Detection of non-Unicode characters

We've gotten ourselves in a slight muddle. We've copied Word documentation
into (many) xs:annotation blocks in our UTF-8 .xsd files (there are around
300 files). In the process, we have apparently brought along some
non-Unicode characters. This is not tolerated equally well by all tools.

Is there a convenient means of scanning .xsd files to locate non-Unicode
characters? I'm looking for something like a Windows command line filter.

Any idea where I can find such a beast?

Thanks,

Mark
