Before I start writing this, I thought I’d see if something already
exists, but I’m having trouble formulating a good google search this
morning.
Let’s say I have a list of, say movies.
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
A Fine Madness
Fanny
Marooned
The Man Who Came to Dinner
I’d like to sort those in title order, as if they were actually
Fanny
Fine Madness, A
Man Who Came to Dinner, The
Marooned
Twenty-thousand Leagues Under the Sea
In other words, leading articles should be moved to the end, and
numbers should be spelled out before sorting.
It seems that sorting titles like this is fairly common, so maybe this
already exists in a usable form.
