Steps to reproduce
- Create and save note with the text
café наёмник
(notice the letters with diacritics). Second word is mercenary in Russian, if anyone is interested. - Do a search for
cafe
. - Do a search for
наемник
.
Expected result
Search returns the text in the note for steps 2 and 3.
Actual result
Search returns nothing for steps 2 and 3, since doesn’t consider that the letters in question could be interchanged in certain cases. For Russian there’s only one case where letter е could be used instead of ё in certain cases, but I’m not sure what should be done for languages like French with tons of diacritics and occasional French-derived cases in English like café, naïve etc.
Environment
- Operating system: Windows 10
- Obsidian version: 0.8.1
Additional information
There’s a feature request concerning this exact behavior but I don’t think it’s a feature, rather it’s a bug.
