Just placing the dash at the beginning or end of the character class should be sufficient. Otherwise the dash is considered a range delimiter.
[-_A-Z] will handle dashes [_a-z-] will also handle them I believe the backslash in a character class is, literally, a backslash in Ben's example and does not affect the dash at all. I say that without doing an actual test, however. :-) Or maybe I misunderstood what you were asking?
