Dear mohtashims,
[reply before original post edited]
With nearly 1000 posts on this site; you well know the culture here by this time.
You should post your code, what you have tried.
As you know, all of this kind of basic text processing is "possible" and there is no best way to do it and there is no "right or wrong" ways. What works for "person a" may not be the best solution for "person b".. and so forth.
As Yoda said in Star Wars, "There is no try".... "Only Do". (or something like that).
So, if you want to process some text, you should choose your tools of choice (based on your computing culture and environment) and you can then write your own code to process your text and post your code here, post your sample input, your sample output and any error messages, and they and only then, as for help based on your code, input, output and error messages (if any) along with the details of your operating system.

cz::sort
Cz::Sort(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Cz::Sort(3pm)
NAME
Cz::Sort - Czech sort
SYNOPSIS
use Cz::Sort;
my $result = czcmp("_x j&a", "_&p");
my @sorted = czsort qw(plachta plaoka Planieka planieka plani);
print "@sorted
";
DESCRIPTION
Implements czech sorting conventions, indepentent on current locales in effect, which are often bad. Does the four-pass sort. The idea and
the base of the conversion table comes from Petr Olsak's program csr and the code is as compliant with CSN 97 6030 as possible.
The basic function provided by this module, is czcmp. If compares two scalars and returns the (-1, 0, 1) result. The function can be called
directly, like
my $result = czcmp("_x j&a", "_&p");
But for convenience and also because of compatibility with older versions, there is a function czsort. It works on list of strings and
returns that list, hmm, sorted. The function is defined simply like
sub czsort
{ sort { czcmp($a, $b); } @_; }
standard use of user's function in sort. Hashes would be simply sorted
@sorted = sort { czcmp($hash{$a}, $hash{$b}) }
keys %hash;
Both czcmp and czsort are exported into caller's namespace by default, as well as cscmp and cssort that are just aliases.
This module comes with encoding table prepared for ISO-8859-2 (Latin-2) encoding. If your data come in different one, you might want to
check the module Cstocs which can be used for reencoding of the list's data prior to calling czsort, or reencode this module to fit your
needs.
