Hi, folks,
Underscores are, in fact, ignored in some collation orders, including (if I
recall correctly) en_CA.UTF-8. It's caused me a bit of confusion now and
then. No idea about English_United States.1252, but from the fact that
Joris' example does not agree with Hervé's, it seems most likely
Actually this is the situation I was facing when I did my first post:
I have a function that downloads a list of sequences from the Ensembl
FTP server, sorts them by name, and returns them to the user. I have
a test for that function and the test was working for me when I was

@Barry : regardless of whether '_' comes before or after '1' , it
should be consistent. Adding an 'a' shouldn't shift '_' from before
'1' to between '1' and '2', that's clearly an error. The help files
are not stating anything about that. The only thing I can imagine, is

Hi,
This looks OK:

But this does not:

rank(xa)
[1] 2 1 3
