Hello,
wouter Abraham gave us a fantastic international sort handler for a
list of items
This is his same handler but for a list (of lines) (for those who are
newbies in RR)
So it can easily be used for sorting in other languages as f.ex.
French (as for me)
don't forget the custom property : SortOrder
the list of this property was given in the original script.
function ctnSort pTextToSort
get the SortOrder of me
repeat for each line kk in it
put kk after so
end repeat
set the caseSensitive to true
repeat for each line ii in pTextToSort
repeat for each char cc in ii
put offset(cc,so) & space after tempVar
end repeat
delete last char of tempVar
put tempVar & "," & ii & cr after theSorter
put "" into tempVar
end repeat
sort lines of theSorter numeric by first item of each
repeat for each line ll in theSorter
put item 2 of ll & cr after theResult
end repeat
return char 1 to -2 of theResult
end ctnSort
Thank to the author of this wonderful, powerful, easy and quick script
