Fast binary sort for strings in a list?
Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2025 6:48 pm
Hello 
Has anyone ever written a fast sort function (for strings inside a list) for Windows that compares by character value?
Which means that e.g.:
It would be cool if this would be UTF-8 compatible...
The normal SortList() doesn't work this way and something like:
within SQLite sorts differently as well...

SELECT * FROM temp ORDER BY FullPath COLLATE BINARY ASC
