Ignoring the apostrophe when searching Sinopia like all other diacritics.

The case:
I used the apostrophe incorrectly instead of the diacritic of the letter (Alif) in typing an Arabic title (in Romanized form) and then I noticed that I had to include the apostrophe into the search otherwise the description wouldn't be retrieved.
I changed the apostrophe to the proper diacritic to be able to retrieve the title "hadaiq"

Recommendation:
Because Sinopia doesn't ignore the apostrophe when searching. I would recommend ignoring the punctuation as we do when searching SearchWorks, OCLC, and LOC databases.

Many thanks
