searching Accented characters

    Hi,

   Is there any way to do Nutch (0.7) find accented characters (special 
characters from Brazilian Portuguese language) when I do a search without 
put the accent in the word ?

  Thanks in advance,

Yes, if the parse-html code strips diacriticals. You'd also want to 
make sure your query parser does the same thing for the user's search 
terms.
