Organize your Favorites into subfolders

I keep my 'Favorites' folder in the dock. Recently it has become so overcrowded that the "click and hold down the button" listing went off the top of the screen.

I've written a Perl script that sorts the 'Favorites' folder (~/Library/Favorites) into A-Z subfolders, thus keeping things more compact. Make sure you save the file with its unix line endings.

[Editor's note: Although I haven't installed this yet myself, the script is very straightforward -- great idea, Rob! Make sure you make the script file executable (chmod 755 script_name) in order to use it.]
