This library implements i;unicode-casemap,
the simple, non locale-sensitive unicode collation
algorithm described in RFC 5051 (http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5051.txt).
Proper unicode collation can be done using text-icu, but that is a big
dependency that depends on a large C library, and rfc5051 might be better
for some purposes.
Here is a list of strings sorted by the Prelude's sort function:
Abe Oeb abe abé oeb Ábe Äbe Ôeb ábe äbe ôeb.
Here is the same list sorted by sortBy compareUnicode:
Abe abe abé Ábe ábe Äbe äbe Oeb oeb Ôeb ôeb
