In the ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1) character set ('e' > 'â') is false. Are you saying that you want à , á, â, ã, ä, and å to be treated as if they were 'a' for comparison ?

but. I want to make a international dictionary. I use binary search and It need:
Performing Locale-Independent Comparisons (in java)

this feature is so great. You can apply to many algorithms (sort,search.....)
so what is like that in QT ?
