Hello, is it possible to search for versions of the same word with or without accent marks? 

In languages that use accents marks, the result of a query should include versions of the word with and without accent marks; these are the marks placed above a letter in a word, like á. é, í, ó, ü. 

A search for "cómo" should return all tiddlers that include the word "como" (without the accent mark) and the word "cómo" (with the accent mark). a Search for "Mexico" should include results for "Mexico" and "México":  

Thanks,

G'day,,

For sure.  Here's what I'm thinking in a scenario in which tiddler titles might have Mexico or México:

<$vars éFilter="M[ée]xico">
<$list filter="[regexp<éFilter>]">
{{!!title}}<br>
</$list>
</$vars>
