I am working on creating dictionary modules based on the Free Vietnamese Dictionary Project. The Vietnamese-English dictionary is working, but some words are not in alphabetical order, and I am trying to find out how to maintain the original alphabetization.
I noticed this when all of the words beginning with a vowel having diacritics/tones or beginning with a "đ" were sorted to the end of the dictionary. The DAT file maintains the original order, which is more accurate. It must be that the IDX file generated by imp2ld creates its own index and alphabetizes according to it's own scheme. The entries of each word are tagged as ThML. Here is a slightly random entry: $$$ác bá <entry key="ác bá" type="main" id="n20"><b>ác bá</b><br />[noun]<br />- Cruel landlord, village tyrant<br /></entry> Is there a way to keep imp2ld from changing the order of the index? I am happy to send someone the IMP file if that helps. I pasted the CONF file at the bottom of this message.
