      List,

Given this example:

I expect to see a bibliography (reference list in APA terms) in the order:

    d'Alembert
    Darwin
    Dee
    Defoe
    de Montaigne
    Digby
    Quérard

But the actual result is quite different (see attached), with de 
Montaigne following Digby, no hyphen between the initials in the Quérard 
entry, and an odd handling of d’Alembert. (The authorhash does have the 
hyphen for the Quérard entry.)

So, the question is, what can be done to get the desired (APA defined) 
order (alphabetize letter-by-letter, ignoring spaces, capitalization, 
hyphens,  apostrophes, periods, and accent marks)?

Beyond that, what can be done to get Montaigne sorted with M entries 
(displayed as “Montaigne, M. de” or “de Montaigne, M.”)?
