@jon: was looking at the wrong agrep manual; seems that no agrep has a usable UTF accent ignoring mode (without manually building the regexes); nonetheles could you include the free TRE agrep instead?

Alright, it is very nice, but only 4/5 for me at this stage because there is no word wrap on the window which makes it a pain to use for long definitions. If the original author could fix that, that would be great.

If there are bugs in Ding, I could try to fix them, but I think it's better if you signal them to the original author. That way it can probably be fixed better and I can just update this PND when a new upstream version is available.

I can't get the -ia option of agrep working, it always says illegal option -a - it looks like Ding is decomposing -ia into -i -a

Searching nǐhǎo gives Warning: pattern has some meta-characters interpreted by agrep! I suspect this is an error, because the result is correct otherwise.
