Hi,this is a bit of an unusual request , I know, but I'm wondering if it is possible to 
define a custom order for characters when comparing strings. I'm studying some ancient 
languages where the transcription "alphabets" use a mixture of standard English 
characters (but not necessarily in the same order they are found in the English alphabet) 
interspersed with Unicode characters to give things like accents or like dots (or other 
additions) underneath the letters. I'd like to create a dictionary list, probably in calc 
in the first instance with words and synonyms, and be able to sort either on the English 
column or on the 'other language' column. Is this sort of thing going to be possible? Or 
would I have to write some (possibly fairly complex) Basic (or whatever) code to do 
it?Thanks,/Gary


I suggest you visit the web site of SIL. Its an organization devoted to the languages of the world. Have some tools that support how to represent scripts.

I also suggest you, to take a look to LaTeX. It is completely capable for languages, academic work, building diccionaries and using tailored fonts.
