Dear Fellow-Contexters,

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

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???


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)

let's try the new texutil variant since that can have language plugins 

needed: 

= example file in spanish 
= sort order

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.
