>
> The ISOLatin1AccentFilter takes Unicode characters that have diacritical
> marks and replaces them with a version of that character with the diacritical
> mark removed. For example é becomes e. However another equally valid way of
> representing an accented character in Unicode is to have the unaccented
> character followed by a non-spacing modifier character (like this: é )
> The ISOLatin1AccentFilter doesn't handle the accents in decomposed unicode
> characters at all. Additionally there are some instances where a word will
> contain what looks like an accented character, that is actually considered to
> be a separate unaccented character such as Ł but which to make searching
> easier you want to fold onto the latin1 lookalike version L .
> The UnicodeNormalizationFilter can filter out accents and diacritical marks
> whether they occur as composed characters or decomposed characters, it can
> also handle cases where as described above characters that look like they
> have diacritics (but don't) are to be folded onto the letter that they look
> like ( Ł -> L )
