Subject: problems with alphabetic ordering in tables containing non ASCII chars
Date: Tue, 05 Jul 2016 20:26:54 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87inwjzv8x.fsf@mat.ucm.es> (raw)
Hello
Consider please the following example:
| Anton |
| Álvarez |
| Arrieta |
org-table-sort-lines using alphabetic ordering results in
| Anton |
| Arrieta |
| Álvarez |
Which is contra intuitive to say the least. The accented A should be
treated as if it did not have an accent resulting in
| Álvarez |
| Anton |
| Arrieta |
That is the way excel (which I try to avoid usually but which is doing
the right thing), works, libreoffice ooffice is also on the wired side
here.
regards
Uwe Brauer
