(If you try, you'll find that sort(1) sorts the same as we do in any given locale.) I imagine you could create a custom locale definition that acts this way, but I have no idea about the degree of wizardry involved. "man localedef" would probably be a place to start. If you come up with a reasonably simple recipe for this, please post it here, as you're not the first to have asked and you likely won't be the last ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
