Hello, all!

    I am developing a catalog of multilingual, multiscript materials:
Arabic, Bengali, Burmese, Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese,
Korean, Mongolian, Russian, Vietnamese, to name but a few. Since both Koha
and MarcEdit are UTF8, I can enter the cataloging records and edit them in
their appropriate script.

    What I cannot do is to search them. I have seen on the Koha Community
wiki is that ICU chains have to be configured. Here's the link:
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ICU_Chains_Library. I also found an
exchange about this:
https://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2012-January/031714.html.

    Is one to infer that the ICU chain has to be configured for each
writing system? Are there other multilingual libraries that have
implemented multilingual, multiscript searching in Koha and how did they do
so?

    Many thanks for your help in this matter.
