<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Greg, I have installed Toolbox, but continue to use
Shoebox out of habit. I assume that Toolbox uses a similar, if not the same,
menu for what characters to ignore when sorting.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Try this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Click on Project / Language encodings </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Highlight name of vernacular language</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Click on Sort orders / Modify</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Then look at the last window in the lower right of
the menu screen, for Ignore characters. Now, I don't know if you can simply type
in a <space> with your keyboard space bar as you can for other characters
(I have mine ignore the "-" sign for morpheme breaks), or if you need to encode
<space> as a hex code or Unicode character, or whatever. I'm sure that
Steve White or someone else more familiar with Shoebox and Toolbox can help with
that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I do almost everything in Lexique Pro these days so
I hardly ever touch Shoebox (or Toolbox). There is a Configuration Wizard in
Lexique Pro which allows you to specify sort order. I'll bcc Richard Margetts,
programmer for Lexique Pro, to see if a <space> can be entered into the
Sort order as a character to be ignored.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear Lexicographers,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want afuafugogo to be sorted before
the string </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>afuafu ni marae by Toolbox. That is,
I want Toolbox to ignore the spaces and sort the string as
afuafunimarae. I do not want to actually remove the spaces. Is there some way
of getting Toolbox to ignore spaces when sorting?</FONT></DIV>
