NAME

       cssort -- Czech sort

FORMAT

       cssort [ "-c"list | "-f"list ["-d"regexp]] [files ...]

SYNOPSIS

	       cssort -c10-15,50-,25-45 < file
	       cssort -f3,5-6 < file
	       cssort -f3,5-6 -s: < file

DESCRIPTION

       Cssort is a utility that sorts input lines according to rules used in the Czech language. You can run it without any options, then it just
       uses whole lines for sorting. With the options, it's possible to specify parts of the lines to be used for comparison.

       list
	   A comma-separated list of integer field numbers or field ranges. The are indexed from 1 and if a range is open (eg. "5-"), it means all
	   remaining fields from the starting number.

       -c  Stands for columns and the list that follows specifies byte ranges on the line. You will probably use this option to sort data with
	   fixed width fields.

       -f  Fields that will be used for sort.

       -d  Delimiter that separates fields in the -f option. It is a Perl regular expression, the default is "[ 	]+", which means any number of
	   spaces or tabs in a row.

       The program assumes ISO-8859-2 encoding. Some way to specify another input encoding will come in the next versions. If you need to sort
       files with different encodings, you might want to check the cstocs conversion utility.

NAME

       Cz::Sort - Czech sort

SYNOPSIS

	       use Cz::Sort;
	       my $result = czcmp("_x j&a", "_&p");
	       my @sorted = czsort qw(plachta plaoka Planieka planieka plani);
	       print "@sorted
";

DESCRIPTION

       Implements czech sorting conventions, indepentent on current locales in effect, which are often bad. Does the four-pass sort. The idea and
       the base of the conversion table comes from Petr Olsak's program csr and the code is as compliant with CSN 97 6030 as possible.

       The basic function provided by this module, is czcmp. If compares two scalars and returns the (-1, 0, 1) result. The function can be called
       directly, like

	       my $result = czcmp("_x j&a", "_&p");

       But for convenience and also because of compatibility with older versions, there is a function czsort. It works on list of strings and
       returns that list, hmm, sorted. The function is defined simply like

	       sub czsort
		       { sort { czcmp($a, $b); } @_; }

       standard use of user's function in sort. Hashes would be simply sorted

	       @sorted = sort { czcmp($hash{$a}, $hash{$b}) }
						       keys %hash;

       Both czcmp and czsort are exported into caller's namespace by default, as well as cscmp and cssort that are just aliases.

       This module comes with encoding table prepared for ISO-8859-2 (Latin-2) encoding. If your data come in different one, you might want to
       check the module Cstocs which can be used for reencoding of the list's data prior to calling czsort, or reencode this module to fit your
       needs.
