List display apparatus and list display method

摘要

A list display apparatus that displays multiple pieces of character string data in a list on a display unit includes a storage unit that stores the multiple pieces of character string data; a sorting unit that sorts the multiple pieces of character string data stored in the storage unit in a character code order; a ligature decomposing unit that decomposes a ligature included in the multiple pieces of character string data into multiple original letters on which the ligature is based in the sorting by the sorting unit; and a sorting control unit that controls the sorting unit so that the multiple letters resulting from the decomposition by the ligature decomposing unit is used in the sorting, instead of the ligature.

1. A list display apparatus that displays multiple pieces of character string data in a list on a display unit, the list display apparatus comprising:
a storage unit configured to store the multiple pieces of character string data; a sorting unit configured to sort the multiple pieces of character string data stored in the storage unit in a character code order; a ligature decomposing unit configured to decompose a ligature included in the multiple pieces of character string data into multiple original letters on which the ligature is based in the sorting by the sorting unit; a replacement unit configured to replace a part of the ligature in each piece of character string data including the ligature with only a first letter of the multiple letters resulting from the decomposition; and a sorting control unit configured to control the sorting unit so that the pieces of character string data after the replacement by the replacement unit are used in the sorting, instead of the pieces of character string data including the ligature, wherein the multiple pieces of character string data are displayed in the list according to an order of the sorting by the sorting unit under the control of the sorting control unit.
