Hi there,
I assume that this is intended behaviour and not a bug, but I couldn't
find it documented, and wanted to know how to disable it.
Summary: When sorting a list of word with dashes in them, sort appears to
ignore the dashes (textutils v2.0).
The following file is not changed by sort:
a
a-b
ab
a-c
ac
I want to sort it like this:
a
a-b
a-c
ab
ac
Because ASCII '-' is smaller than alphabetical chars.
Is there any way to make sort behave like this?
Regards,
Corin
