Sorry, I didn't understand what you meant by "that" in the sentence "Right now that is on for English but off for all other languages."

Best wishes,

One problem on Swedish Wikipedia with the current search engine is that it just doesn't do characters like å, ä and ö (which are three common letters in Swedish) well. They are lumped together with a and o respectively, which is like getting your i-words lumped together with your j-words. Åland is followed by Alaska, for example. So, as one user answered this question, does this function do this better? If it isn't, why should we test it on Swedish Wikipedia? His words, not mine.

Right now that is on for English but off for all other languages.  Some other languages may want it but Swedish certainly isn't one of them.
