Re: [NTG-context] Index sorting for other languages that English

26 May 2006

      Here is the test file. 
If you remove the \setupregister command, or simply set expansion=no, the sorting will work perfectly.
With expansion=yes or expansion=xml, the accented letters are sorted under "A".

Below are my updated sorting rules again...

Thanks Hans, it works with my test file,
unless I set up:
\setupregister[index][expansion=xml]
which i need for correct processing of the XML files.
If I simply add this command into the testing TeX file (no XML), the 
Czech sorting stops to work and all accented characters are placed 
under "A".
  test file ...
Regarding the sorting itself (sort-lan.tex):
I found the definiton of the sorting quite strange, let's say, 
incomplete.
It makes no sense to separate ccaron while all other accented letters 
are placed under the unaccented ones.
I'll update the definitions, test it and send it to you.
  ok
Hans
