then you probably want replacements too:
After updating to latest beta (2017.03.21 14:21), I’m afraid I still get wrong alphabetic sorting for both Spanish and ancient Greek texts.
See http://www.ousia.tk/grc-order.pdf (and its source file http://www.ousia.tk/grc-order.tex).
In Spanish, acute accented vowels are sorted after their unaccented versions.
In ancient Greek, some words are simply misplaced.
I don’t know what I am missing. In the suite, Linux 32bit contains luateX-1.0.3. I don’t know whether this might affect to word sorting.
I must confess that I don’t understand why replacements require Greek letters with diacritics to be converted to the Greek letter without diacritic and a Latin character. Or why replacements are needed at all.
I mean, I understand that "ä", "ö", "ü" are sorted in German in three different ways. But these are different letters, after all.
well, you want alphas with some diacretics to come out in a well defined order not some random way .. there's always some order needed
If diacritics don’t affect to sort order in Greek, which is the use of the replacements?
{ "α", "αa" }, { "ά", "αb" }, { "ὰ", "αc" }, { "ὰ", "αd" }
In the line above, isn’t "ὰ" replaced by two different values? Is this ok?
Many thanks for your help,
