In the last episode (Mar 29), Palle Girgensohn said:On many unix systems, strcoll(3) is case insensitive for locales other than C/POSIX. Not so for FreeBSD. Just curious, is this a design decision or simply the lack of time and efforts to write the code for it?
The only thing I can find is ache's commit back in 1996 in /usr/src/share/colldef:
1996-06-09 12:24 ache * la_LN.ISO8859-1.src, la_LN.ISO_8859-1.src, lt_LN.ISO_8859-1.src:
Make collation table compatible with POSIX WG15 view, i.e. capital letters first
I wish I could find the POSIX docs for this, but sadly they don't seem to exists openly on the net?
