Special Case: Sort Likhushina's Root List

[gasyoun]

@drdhaval2785 since 2011 I'm working on a Sanskrit reader. The InDesign layout part and editing was finished today. There is an InDesign javascript that extracts all the roots from the book and add the page number. By default it is in English alphabet order.

√arṣ — 102
√as — 44
ati-√kram — 83, 134
ati-√muc — 106
ati-√ric — 85
ati-√vart (√vṛt) — 145
vi-√rah — 66, 120
vi-√ram — 125, 152
vi-√ru — 167
vi-√sarp (√sṛp) — 114

Can we sort it Devanagari properly, please? (√vṛt) so anything inside () should not be involved in sorting, same as - and √.

@gasyoun Didnt we agree that input is in SLP1. The more the transliterator code - more the issues.

[gasyoun]

Sure, I'll convert the IAST in book to SLP1, that's not an issue at all.

√arz — 102
√as — 44
ati-√kram — 83, 134
ati-√muc — 106
ati-√ric — 85
ati-√vart (√vft) — 145
vi-√rah — 66, 120
vi-√ram — 125, 152
vi-√ru — 167
vi-√sarp (√sfp) — 114

How does the following look ?

ati-√kram — 83, 134
ati-√muc — 106
ati-√ric — 85
ati-√vart (√vṛt) — 145
√arṣ — 102
√as — 44
vi-√ram — 125, 152
vi-√rah — 66, 120
vi-√ru — 167
vi-√sarp (√sṛp) — 114

This is the output of multi13.php without altering any code. If there is need, we can mend the code.

I would want to know if an option of sorting by the word under √ is possible? For example, to sort under √muc all the upasargas?

[drdhaval2785]

sample list and sample sorted list please
