How does Fuse handle accented characters? #322

Closed cbdeveloper closed 5 years ago

cbdeveloper commented 5 years ago

I've looked around and made some tests, but haven't figured out yet.

How does Fuse handle accented characters? Both in the search string, and in the searched values. Does it modify them somehow? Or it will end up matching all other characters except for the accented ones? See examples below:

Example 1:

Search string: résumé Item.title: "This is my resume"

Example 2:

Search string: resume Item.title: "This is my résumé"

What's is the behavior in these two situations?

Thanks.

Accented characters will match accordingly. In your particular case, "é" will match "é", and "e" will match "e".
