se your page using a clearer terminology. Probably, it would be a good idea to mention UTF-16 encoding, in the 1st paragraph. Cf. http://www.unicode.org/unicode/faq/utf_bom.html#5 for the basic facts, and terminology, related to UTF-16. Thank you, Otto Stolz

d similar diacritical marks (based on their glyphical appearance). 2nd-level homographs are sorted according to case: here, capitals go after small letters. Encyclopaedias and dictionaries usually comply with the 1st level. Some state explicit, deviating rules for the 2nd, or 3rd, level (e. g. Duden has "ß" before "ss", in the 2nd level); some do not state their rules in that detail, but nevertheless deviate in 2nd, or 3rd, level. Some dictionaries sort 1st-level homographs on part of speech. Best wishes, Otto Stolz
