The output of the following script is <code>127 0 128</code> rather than the expected <code>0 127 128</code> <code><verbatim> #! /usr/bin/env tclsh package require sqlite3 sqlite db :memory: db eval { create table t ( v text ) } foreach val { \x80 \x7f \x00 } { string range $val 0 end #puts [::tcl::unsupported::representation $val] db eval { insert into t values ($val) } } set sorted {} db eval { select v from t order by v collate binary asc } { lappend list $v scan $v %c ord lappend sorted $ord } puts $sorted </verbatim></code> The correct output would be <code>0 127 128</code>, woulddn't it? -- Yorick
