Because I only worry about spaces in this situation, I use:

<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('id', 
_.string.capitalize(_.string.replace(med_name,' ', '_')))">

(Yes I know I shouldn't do this in DTML, but I didn't know better
when I wrote it. <s>)

To convert all non-legal characters you would need to use
"maketrans". You should be able to find it in any good Python
reference.
