Saghen
lua implementation - better support of diacritics
It seems like words with accents (such as, "amanhã", which means "tomorrow" in Portuguese), are not suggested in the auto-complete popup.
Is this something on my end only? What is happening? Another example:
"ááááá" is not suggested. "aaaa" is suggested.
Could you be a bit more specific?
What's your blink and neovim version? Can you provide your current blink config? The buffer source should be responsible to suggest these words as you type.

How to reproduce:
What I do is, just open a test.md file, start typing away. "áááá" is not suggested while "aaaa" is. This seems to happen with every accentuated word.
Ah I see. You are using the lua implementation which is currently fragile with diacritics because it explicitly set only few of them. I'll keep this issue opened until we found a good solution.
In the meantime, if you can, switch to the recommended rust implementation (see why).
Yes, thank you! For people searching: changing
fuzzy = { implementation = 'lua' },
to
fuzzy = { implementation = 'prefer_rust_with_warning' },
Fixed the issue for me.
