"--ignorecase" option does not work with Cyrillic #394

For example, with bemenu --ignorecase I expected to match "Достоевский" by typing "достоевский", but it did't work, unfortunately. Could you please fix this? I'm using 0.6.20 version.

Ah the ignorecase simply does strnicmp, it's not unicode aware. For your case bemenu would need a unicode aware filter function.

Well, I hope bemenu will get this Unicode-aware function one day :)
