But the problem is sorting UTF8 strings.
According to
http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?topic=15256.0
UTF8CompareText would be the best choice and it runs quite fast.
But it does not obey sorting by locale (i.e. german umlauts end
up at the end of the list although they need to be sorted together with
their corresponding non-umlaut characters (Ü at U, Ä at A, and so on).
Does *any* Pascal UTF8 string compare function exist that does this?
Such functions should be provided by the system's
Unicode/internationalization library. When they can be located there, a
wrapper can be added to the RTL.
