Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Sorting and non-en_US indexes
Thanks Jirka. Just to make sure I understand how to use this: Once I compile one class for each target language following the naming convention Compare_<replaceable>language code</replaceable> (Compare_ja, etc), I run saxon with the appropriate langague code? > java -Duser.language=<replaceable>language-code</replaceable> com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet... ...and it should use the Compare class for the user.language? In the case of Japanese, where there's no notion of upper/lowercase, I shouldn't have to edit the declarations for &uppercase; and &lowercase;, correct?
