Question

Is there a way for searching / comparing strings without consideration of locale?

I mean: if I have two input sources on my keyboard (Russian and English) and I start typing – I want to search word without consideration what input source is active at the moment.

And I’ll find string contained “Search” without metter what I’ve typed “search” or “ыуфкср”

Thanks.

You would simply need to do search by two phrases: the original input and the result of conversion to another keyboard layout. You would have a conversion map like this:

{
    a: 'ф',
    s: 'ы',
    d: 'в',
    f: 'а',
    ...
}
