Unicode/Collate version 0.12 =============================== Unicode::Collate - Unicode Collation Algorithm UCA - Unicode TR #10. http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr10/ Fetch the following file and put it into the Unicode/Collate directory. http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr10/allkeys.txt You can install this module using a subset "keys.txt" contained in this distribution without the "allkeys.txt"; but "keys.txt" is small and not very useful. SYNOPSIS use Unicode::Collate; #construct $Collator = Unicode::Collate->new(%tailoring); #sort @sorted = $Collator->sort(@not_sorted); #compare $result = $Collator->cmp($a, $b); # returns 1, 0, or -1. $result = $Collator->eq($a, $b); # returns true/false (similarly ->ne, ->lt, ->le, ->gt, ->ge) INSTALLATION Perl 5.006 or later To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES It's better if you have Unicode::Normalize (v 0.10 or later) although Unicode::Collate can be used without Unicode::Normalize.
