That main language is set correctly. While the current implementation
supports a single character order, in czech at least two are required - the
primary one for the first pass and the secondary for the second pass. It
ensures the correct order of accented characters.
Anyway, I dive into the code and found an entry point in the sort-ini.lua
file.
In the comparers.basic(a,b) function I call a customized code instead of
basicsort().
Thanks to my code I can produce desired outputs now ;-)
But all my lua code is directly in that file, which is not ideal as it is
overwritten with every ConTeXt update. Is there any general recommendation
how to make these customization more flexible?
Thanks, Jan
