Re: searching for attributes containing eg. german umlauts

Hello Christian,

maybe you could use slapo_rwm to rewrite Mueller to Müller. The rewrite 
rule could look like this (very much like the add/eat blanks examples):

rwm-rewriteRule	   "(.*)ae(.*)" "$1ä$2"

The same should be possible for ö ü and ß. I'm not shure if this will 
work, as it is an idea, rather than an solution. I'm not able to test it 
at the moment so you will have to try yourself.

regards

Simon
