I assume that you are talking about files that are in Serbian as opposed to
some other Cyrillic Language. If you know that it is Serbian just use a
translation/conversion table that maps the 5 characters (in both UC and LC)
in question to the Serbian in lieu of the Russian/etc Unicode codepoints.
Since you say "automatic" there must be tables so using one as opposed to
the other should not be that hard. If you accidentally goof and use the
wrong one just do another translate that maps each character to itself
except for the 10 codepoints.
