Include new filter about cgeo-guide HOT 8 CLOSED

I guess this is more or less something I should provide. But it will take a while until I find the time. Depends on how much specialities are needed for the new filter to go live :-)

from cgeo-guide.

I started a manual page for new filtering here: https://manual.cgeo.org/en/cachefilter
It is far from finished, but I would appreciate feedback anyway

from cgeo-guide.

Looks pretty good already, thanks for your work on it!

Found a small typo, but don't know how to get in edit mode, so I'll list it here:

* Cache Type is used to filter for cache type. Use the checkboxes to mark/unmark certaion If filters are set in more than one of these sections, then they are combined using AND-logic 

(a little bit more than halfway down)

"to mark/unmark certaion If filters" probably should read something like "to mark/unmark a certain filter. If filters..."

from cgeo-guide.

"to mark/unmark certaion If filters" probably should read something like "to mark/unmark a certain filter. If filters..."

Thanks, this was an unwanted leftover. I removed it.

An initial complete version of the Cache Filter documentation is now available for review (in english only):
https://cgeo.droescher.eu/en/cachefilter

That was a piece of work! There are surely still many typos in it, but i think it can serve as a first version.

Thanks @eddiemuc for creating that. I optimized some smaller things like typos and anchors and started translation to german.

One question though for the pattern textfilter:

Filters all caches where the filtered fields value corresponds to the Pattern given in the Search Text. You may use wildcards ? and . * represents zero, one or multiple characters, ? represents one single character. For example, pattern 'H?mburg' will match e.g. 'Homburg' or 'Hamburg at Night' but not 'A day in Hamburg' or 'Hahmburg'

Why is "A day in Hamburg" not a valid result in this example?

There's a typo in my text, the example pattern should be H?mburg* (with a trailing star)

A day in Hamburg is not a match because the pattern is matched against the complete text, not whether it is just contained somewhere.

A day in Hamburg would be matched by e.g. pattern *H?mburg*, but not by H?mburg*

That was probably my fault while c&p it to here.
Should all be correct now then.
