 So the search for diseño in test.html works perfectly thanks to 
HTML2.

It seems, I will not have problems with the search in .html files. 
 
linux:/usr/... # head -1 test.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
 
You said that the search for diseño and diseno should match, but it 
doen't.Why? 
 
 
 
Thank you.
