Composer sorting with accented characters

[simoncn]

There is no need to use both Composer.reverseName.display and Composer.reverseName.display.index. You should just use Composer.reverseName.display.index.

MinimServer sorts the first 256 Unicode codepoints (less than or equal to U+00FF) by their natural collation values. After code point U+00FF, the sort order is by codepoint value. The split at U+00FF is for ease of implementation and runtime performance. Because the "Š" character is Unicode U+0160, it doesn't benefit from the special collation treatment for the lower-numbered codepoints.

You can customize the sort order for these exceptional cases by adding additional tags and setting some additional MinimServer properties. The following should work:

1) For each composer that needs a custom sorting order, add two tags in addition to the Composer tag that you have currently:

ComposerName = Raminta Šerkšnytė
ComposerSort = Serksnyte, Raminta

2) Set the following additional MinimServer properties:

itemTags = ComposerName, ComposerSort
tagValue = ComposerName.value.sort={ComposerSort}, Composer.replace={ComposerName.custom}
