searching for accented characters
When searching for a word in "My Books" or "Current read" I miss some accented characters in sw keyboard, for instance č, ě. I take the number of keyboard languages is limited.
Is there a way through? The device is Libra 2.

You can use a patch for the keyboard (absolutely any language), replacing the characters with the ones you need.
As a sample:

You mean to edit the relevant characters in the patch?

On a similar note, is there an option to search for words with removed diacritics, e.g. the same result for both the niño and the nino?

Thanks much

I'm quite a character, though I am bad at accents (though people tell me I sound like I come from Minnesota).

No, unfortunately, the search only works for exact matches.
You have to edit the text itself in the epub/kepub books by putting the deleted diacritics back in place.
Theoretically, can add a mask search to NickelMenu. Practically, geek1011 doesn't have time for this right now.
