get-collate-table [85] (10) Recommended


        get-collate-table [85] ( )
                -> ( HOLLERITH );

This call returns the collate table being used by the server to match names. If index A and index B in the string are the same character, characters A and B are considered equivalent. An empty collate table indicates that the server considers all characters different.

Currently, the lyskomd server only deals with 8-bit characters. Clients should be prepared for collate tables of any length. Characters whose code are greater than the length of the collate table should be considered to be unique.

This call always succeeds.
