I have a table like this I'd like to sort :
| Name | Case |
| John | X-123/08 P|
| Bob | X-123/09 |
| Dylan | X-45/10 |

I want to sort the Case colum by case's year then case's number knowing that the format is always "X-(1 to 4 digits for case's number)/(case's year on 2 digits) (sometimes some text)". It's possible that after the year's case I have some text but it shoud be ignored for sorting.

I am using tablesorter jQuery's plugin and I am struggling to add a custom parser for this.

Thanks for your help !
