Highlights browser search matches within notes, including field code, tags, regex and overlapping matches, with auto-scroll, scrollbar indicators and customizable settings.
Adds a persistent second search box to the browser whose terms stay until manually cleared, with search history and grouped AND concatenation.
Adds four combinable options to the {{type:}} field to ignore case, accents, punctuation, or extra words when checking typed answers.
Adds card-template modifiers that strip Arabic, Hebrew, or Syriac diacritics while preserving specified marks, letting cards show or hide diacritics conditionally, including cloze fields.
Converts saved and incorrect UWorld questions into organized AnKing filtered decks by matching question IDs with existing flashcards, using an included browser extension and preserving spaced-repetition scheduling.
Makes browser search live as you type, saves queries after two seconds of inactivity, highlights invalid searches in red, and still shows error popups when pressing Enter.
This feature is part of Anki now. You can enable it with the setting: Tools -> Preferences -> Editing -> Browsing -> [x] Ignore accents in search (slower)
Ignore accents and diacritical marks used by various languages when searching in the card browser and match only against the base characters. This allows you to enter only the base characters in the browser search bar even if your notes have the words written with the marks included.
Changes in 2.4:
Anki add-on that forces browser search to always ignore accents/diacritical marks. Compatible with Anki 2.1.28 and newer.
Since version 2.1.24, Anki allows you to search in the browser while ignoring accents or diacritial marks by adding a marker to each word you want to search for: nc:something. This is not very intuitive for those who frequenty rely on this behavior or when multiple terms are included in the search.
This add-on will do the hard work for you and ensure every term in your search is automatically converted to nc:myword without you doing anything else. Once the add-on is installed, the behavior is always enabled and it will always modify your browser searches.
The add-on has no effect on any term that includes the : character as they are considered special Anki keywords. You cannot search for field:myword. Besides being difficult to implement, searching with field:nc:myword is not supported by Anki anyway.
Grouping, negation, and and|or keywords are safe to use normally; the add-on will find the right terms to annonate and preserve the quoting (previous versions stripped quoting).
My test string:
"deck:Chinese::Let's learn words" black -(cat and ( mouse or carrot )) with "orange" -(dog or rabbit) is:new -house deck:"inner quotes test!"
Produces this result:
"deck:Chinese::Let's learn words" nc:black -(nc:cat and ( nc:mouse or nc:carrot )) nc:with "nc:orange" -(nc:dog or nc:rabbit) is:new -nc:house deck:"inner quotes test!"
