This method isn't doing what I expect it to do (which probably means that I'm 
expecting the wrong thing.)

//=====================================================
NSRange range = NSMakeRange(0,1);
        
NSString *s1 = @"ab";
NSString *s2 = @"ac";
        
//Just compare the first character
NSComparisonResult result1 = [s1 compare:s2 options:NSLiteralSearch range:range 
locale:[NSLocale currentLocale]];
NSLog(@"Result 1 = %d", result1);

//Now swap the order of the strings
NSComparisonResult result2 = [s2 compare:s1 options:NSLiteralSearch range:range 
locale:[NSLocale currentLocale]];
NSLog(@"Result 2 = %d", result2);
//=====================================================

I get a result of -1 both times. Since we are only comparing the first 
character, shouldn't the result be 0?

Thanks for any illumination,

Derek Huby
