Dear Fellow-Contexters,
I have been charged with editing a ConTeXt document in Spanish (of which
I understand preciously little). This far I have gotten over the hurdles
of hyphenation, labeltexts and the upside-down exclamation mark (and as
far as we can tell, the Spanish hyphenation patterns get loaded, too),
but now I have a problem sorting the index: the words 'ángulo' and
'índice' get sorted in the beginning of the index instead of among a and i.
It tried putting something like the example below in a) the setup part
of my document, b) just before the index (a bit like in the example at
<http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2005/008346.html>, except that
I use the command \placeindex and not \completeindex) and c) in the
lang-ita.tex file.
% Changes to sorting to fix the sorting of accented letters
\startlanguagespecifics[es]
\definesortkey {\´a}{a}{a}{\´a} % á sorted among 'a'
\definesortkey {\´i}{i}{i}{\´i} % í sorted among 'i'
\stoplanguagespecifics
None of the options a)-c) worked and I'm thinking that this is more of a
"stupid user" problem, i.e. as I cannot find any description on how
\definesortkey works, I just don't understand how to use it properly.
Any help???
Mari
PS. Tried to find related info in contextgarden.net, but can't find much
- if it isn't there, I can add stuff (*after* I solve this problem) if
somebody tells me where I may start growing this flower of mine.

let's try the new texutil variant since that can have language plugins
needed:
= example file in spanish
= sort order

I'm playign with the new texutil, and what i need is sort rules.
for instance, for slovenian we need:
\startmode[sortorder-sv]
\exportsortexpansion {ccaron} {cz}
\exportsortexpansion {cacute} {czz}
\exportsortexpansion {dstroke} {dz}
\exportsortexpansion {scaron} {sz}
\exportsortexpansion {zacron} {zz}
\exportsortdivision {cz} {ccaron}
\exportsortdivision {czz} {cacute}
\exportsortdivision {dz} {dstroke}
\exportsortdivision {sz} {scaron}
\exportsortdivision {zz} {zacron}
\stopmode
can you (and others) more language specific sort rules?
(divisions do the reverse, they determine what ends up under a different key)
Hans
