In version 2 the caching filenames are hashed which means that international characters and symbols are supported and less likely to break searx.
import hashlib
fname = request.form['q'] + str(search_query.pageno) + str(search_query.categories[0])
# Generate a hash of the search term
hash_object = hashlib.md5(fname.encode())
hex_dig = hash_object.hexdigest()
subdirectory = hex_dig[:2] # Use the first 2 characters of the hash as the subdirectory name

if not os.path.exists(cache_dir):
