What does Better Search add?

Better Search

Features

line

Better Search is a client-side mod that basically enhances searching with support for mistyped searches using fuzzy search logic and support for multiple languages, of your choose, heres a list of all of the features:

Description of the image for accessibility

Fuzzy Search: Uses fuzzy logic for the search to be more intelligent, and tolerate typing errors, accents and other parameters. Multi-Language: It also lets you search another language, or mixing languages. (It already comes pre-configured, but if you want to choose your preferred languages to taste, just open the mod menu) Command Search: Fuzzy logic applies to the chat too, and when writing a minimally wrong command, the mod suggests the right command and other convenient suggestions. Commands Between Versions: In updates like 1.13 and 1.21.11, several commands changed name and stoped working, Better Search allows you to use any future or previous name of a command independent of the version. Applies to Recipe Mods: The improved search applies to the search of JEI, REI, NEI and EMI. More Parametes: Now JEI parameters and general identifiers of the game files affect the search, like searching by the item ID, the mod name, effect of an item, and several others. Best Performance: Compared with the Vanilla search and other similar mods, Better Search spends less RAM and searches faster in most scenarios.
