find/search doesn't normalize
Last modified: 2007-03-27 10:21:34 UTC
Search doesn't normalize strings during search. Example: I have a song by artist Tété. My keyboard layout has combining diacritics so I type <U+0065 LATIN SMALL LETTER E;U+0301 COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT> instead of <U+00E9 LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE>. If I search "Tété" with combining diacritics nothing is found although "Tété" with precomposed characters should match.
Created attachment 85107 [details] [review] patch normalizing strings This patch normalizes the in string rb_search_fold() and rb_string_split_words(). Because of the "normalizing" already present in the code now "Tete" will match "Tété".
I've committed the patch to svn trunk.
