Finder sorting different to shell sorting
Authored by: osxpounder on Jun 25, '03 04:14:52PM

I wouldn't say I despair over it, but I am occasionally tripped up by the difference between the Finder sort order and the shell's--I like the Finder better, since it's designed to sort the way humans would, but I can see why shells and other, less sophisticated computer interfaces sort differently. I think if I had the option to make Finder consistent with the shell's method of sorting, I wouldn't use it often, but when I did, I'd want that to be a per-folder setting... so that I wouldn't upset other folders if I just happened to want *this* folder to sort differently.
