Don't forget you can also use starts-with() for
your tests, and then you don't have to sometimes
use a length of 1 and sometimes use a length of 2.
I hope this helps.

Hi Michael and Martin,
I believe you are right, no general solution
exists for the reasons Michael mentioned.
However, for the archives, I ended up with this
monstrosity that does the job (ugly as it is):
<xsl:for-each-group select="Word" group-by="if
(lower-case(substring(@word,1,1)) eq 'Ä?' or
lower-case(substring(@word,1,1)) eq 'Å?' or
lower-case(substring(@word,1,1)) eq '?' or
lower-case(substring(@word,1,1)) eq '?') then
lower-case(substring(@word,1,1)) else if
(lower-case(substring(@word,1,2)) eq 'ch') then
'ch' else lower-case(substring(cps:remove-diacritics(@word), 1, 1))">
<xsl:result-document
href="{concat('index/cz-', current-grouping-key())}.htm">
Where cps:remove-diacritics() is defined as:
<xsl:function name="cps:remove-diacritics">
<xsl:param name="in-string"/>
<xsl:value-of
select="replace(normalize-unicode($in-string,
'NFKD'), '[̀-ͯ]', '')"/>
</xsl:function>
Thanks all,
Mark
