Dear Kees,
Define the double vowels as a separate character in your language sort
order.

I've been playing around a bit with Toolbox the last few days. And I
came to like it.
However, I have been not been able to convince Toolbox, while parsing,
to refrain from splitting up long vowels when they are written as
double vowels, as e.g. in Ojibwe (Fiero spelling), and a lot of other
languages.
Would anyone know a solution (other than converting digraphs to a
single character +/- diacritic)?

thanks in advance,

Kees van Kolmeschate
