Does anyone know of an easy way to find or highlight illegal characters (such as smart quotes) in Eclipse?

Like, if you copy and pasted code someone sent you in a Word document (I don't know why someone would do this either :p), these characters might seep in. What's the easiest way to hunt them down?

Thanks guys :)

Build, copy from an error statement, paste into Find/Replace, done?

Alternately, have the person sending you the file turn off smart quotes prior to sending. (Or use a tool more appropriate for code display...)
