Hum -- so in this case, the non-sorting characters wouldn't be present in
the second indicator -- but are designated via control values.  At this
point, there wouldn't be a good way to do this but find and replace.  I do,
in the delimited text translator -- have a set of values that are utilized
when automatically calculating the non-sorting value when creating the 245
field.  I wonder if that could be extended into the tool to allow folks to
designate the non-sorting list and fields that could be utilized for
processing.  It would have to be flexible since obviously MARC21 and UNIMARC
(or other flavors) place data in different field codes.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] AW: [MARCEDIT-L] Non sorting characters

Hi Terry,

thanks for your quick answer. I would like to add the nonsorting characters
<< and >> around articles like "a", "an" and "the" (and possibly other words
like "and") in 245$a. A title like: "The Wonderful MarcEdit Software" would
then look like:

245$$a<<The>> Wonderful MarcEdit Software.

See also https://www.loc.gov/marc/nonsorting.html. If there is a different
way to handle nonsorting with MarcEdit, I'd be happy to know about it.

Thanks again,
Anke
