+ This library implements @i;unicode-casemap@,
+ the simple, non locale-sensitive unicode collation
+ algorithm described in RFC 5051 (&lt;http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5051.txt&gt;).
+ Proper unicode collation can be done using text-icu, but that is a big
+ dependency that depends on a large C library, and rfc5051 might be better
+ for some purposes.
+
+ Here is a list of strings sorted by the Prelude&#39;s @sort@ function:
+
+ @Abe Oeb abe ab&amp;#233; oeb &amp;#193;be &amp;#196;be &amp;#212;eb &amp;#225;be &amp;#228;be &amp;#244;eb@
+
+ Here is the same list sorted by @sortBy compareUnicode@:
+
+ @Abe abe ab&amp;#233; &amp;#193;be &amp;#225;be &amp;#196;be &amp;#228;be Oeb oeb &amp;#212;eb &amp;#244;eb@
