This SHOULD BE Optional
Authored by: coachjs on Feb 20, '03 01:33:32AM

As an example compare how the same list of folders is sorted in the Finder and the Terminal - this is NOT intelligent sorting:


Folder list sorted correctly by OS X Terminal:
R0204302US
R0205312YS
R0206302YU
R02083121F
R02103122S
R02123123O
R03021426R
R03021829D
R03021929B
R7912312N8
R8912312OA
R9912312OC

Same Folder list sorted by OS X v10.2 Finder:
R02083121F
R02103122S
R02123123O
R03021426R
R03021829D
R03021929B
R7912312N8
R8912312OA
R9912312OC
R0204302US
R0205312YS
R0206302YU

What's up with that?!!
