Treat ß as a diacritic for ss
Posted: Wed Feb 12, 2020 7:59 am
Hi,
I'd like to suggest to treat the German special char ß/ẞ ("Eszett") as a diacritic for "ss". It is (more or less) interchangable, the Swiss don't even use ß but only ss.
So receiving files from Swiss and German people makes it quite cumbersome to find with everything, if the filename contains either ß or ss. Default behavior in other search tools (Google, Browser search, Windows File search) is to treat ß/ẞ and ss/SS as equal.
Thank You very much!
