Hello Hans,
I'd like to remind the 2 persisting problems with the index sorting.
1. Numbers are sorted under A 2. Symbols are sorted under the first letter which follows.
See the attached test file. Both these issues are independent on language and on the expansion type.
Proposed solution:
1. Sort numbers into separate divisions 2. Sort symbols to a special division called "Symbols"
Could you please look into it? May I help you any further (except the attached test file)?
For example, the DocBook XSLT stylesheets (http://docbook.sourceforge.net/) solve it this way: Symbols (anything unsortable, including numbers) A B ... Z --- I'd suggest a bit better way: Symbols 1 2 ... 9 A B ... Z -Richard _____ From: Hans Hagen [mailto:pragma@wxs.nl] To: mailing list for ConTeXt users [mailto:ntg-context@ntg.nl] Sent: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 14:33:41 +0200 Subject: Re: [NTG-context] Index sorting again Richard Gabriel wrote: the question is ... where do they need to end up Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
