Hello, I am using gnuwin32 tools in Windows.
I need a solution to do a batch search that ignores diacritics and accents
the input text file looks like this:
english
énglish
énglish
ènglish
ĕnglish
ênglish
when i do “grep english file.txt” it only shows me the first line but I need the script to return all those lines.
if grep can’t do it, is there any better command line search tool?
should do the job.
As mikelinus says, they are different characters so there’s no easy way to just drop the accents (other than specifying each character).
