[sword-devel] SWORD 1.5.9 RC

[Adrian Korten]

g'day,

I sent the e-mail and realized ten minutes later that it might be 
misunderstood. What I'm interested in is some way to get around the 
ToUpper problem with Thai (capitalizing of Thai characters). You talked 
about this in a much earlier e-mail which is copied below.

Hey Adrian,
	Thanks for reporting.  Yeah, we're now using ICU to capitalize all 
languages (not for display, but rather in keys before parsing, so
functionality is not case-sensitive).  I'll make a note to write a
little utility to OUTPUT what sword wants as the uppercase version of
what it's complaining about, then you can just paste that into your locale.
