E.g. -- DIN 5007-1 (German default sorting) is like zm,zc,uc, but ß should be sorted like ss. -- DIN 5007-2 (German phonebook sorting) would additionally require umlauts to be sorted as ä = ae etc. -- Austrian phonebook sorting sorts umlauts after base vocals, i.e. a, ä, o, ö, u, ü, s, ß. -- Danish and Norwegian: x, y, z, æ, ø, å -- Finnish and Swedish: x, y = ü, z, æ, ä, ö, ø, å (until 2006 v = w) -- etc. (according to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphabetische_Sortierung)
sort-lan.lua contains different language definitions.
Ah, thanks for the hint. But how can I employ these definitions with index/list ordering? Setting mainlanguage and method "*,uc" doesn’t seem to do the trick.
Among others: DIN 5007-1, DIN 5007-2, Duden.
Hans, please add the replacement { "ß", "ss" } to definitions['DIN 5007-1'] and definitions['DIN 5007-2'] Thank you!
Swedish doesn’t contain ø (according to https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ø, it is replaced with ö) or ü (it is a foreign letter to their alphabet). and "fi" seems to order the way you describe. And v is different from w.
I wouldn’t touch it then, who knows how accurate German wikipedia is...
I would say, Finnish isn’t included in sort-lan.lua.
Yes it is. (http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/mkiv/sort-lan.lua)
Please, it would be extremely helpful (I remember thinking that registers didn’t make any sense in ConTeXt, before someone helped me).
As soon as I understand how the language dependent sorting works... Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD
