I was thinking to write a collate table for sorting.
But the Help didn't say much about how the collate table is formed.

The example collate table source files, such as COLLANSI.TXT do not give much information either.

How should the codes in COLLANSI.TXT be interpreted?
How do they control the order for sorting?
Is it possible to set different characters (such as a,á,à,ã) to be interpreted as same character when sorting?
Is it possible to ignore spaces?
