\cdbalgorithm{indexsort}{}

Lexographically sorts indices of all tensors according to their Young
tableau symmetries. This works in simple symmetric or anti-symmetric
cases as expected:
\begin{screen}{1,2}
A_{m n}::AntiSymmetric.
A_{n m};
@indexsort!(%);
(-1) A_{m n};
\end{screen}
It also sorts index groups in tensors with row exchange
symmetries, such as the Riemann tensor,
\begin{screen}{1,2}
R_{a b c d}::RiemannTensor.
R_{d c a b};
@indexsort!(%);
(-1) R_{a b c d};
\end{screen}
For more complicated canonicalisation algorithms,
see \subscommand{canonicalise} as well as \subscommand{reduce}.
