Hello,

posting a letter in  news:comp.lang.perl.moderated
I was suggested to have a look at "The Perl 5 Module List".

But having never worked with PERL it is difficult for my to find out
what I am looking for: So I will tell you what's my problem:

I have got a language "Kurmanc�" which has to be sorted like "Turkish"
but is distinguishing several accented vowels, too.  For example I need
a sorting algorithm which should sort these example words 
ez, �var, pir, p�r, e, en, �, �n, il ,�l, i, �, u, um, �m, � ...

like 
e, en, ez, 
�, �n, �var, 
i, il, 
�, �l, 
pir, 
p�r, 
u, um, 
�, �m ...

in any way, i.e. within Kurdish words, too.

This algorithm should NEVER sort them like 
e, �, en, �n, �var, ez, 
i, �, il, �l, 
pir, p�r, 
u, �, um, �m ...

The Kurdish alphabet is ( to see it clearly it has to be selected
character set "Turkish"!)
a, b, c, �, d, e, �, f, g, h, i, �, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, �[=
Ascii 0349], t, u, �, v, w, x, y, z 

My question is: May a find 
an algorithm 
a) sorting "Turkish" language
b) including this aspected vowel sorting
written in Perl?

If not may I find an existing similar one and do the necessary
changes myself? That will say: If a would have found a sorting algorithm
for Turkish sorting, I would like to do the few changes - I hope -
necessary for the above mentioned vowel problem.

With kind regards

Ernst Tremel
