Thanks for the report, but I can't reproduce the above problem. Using sort -n works for me with the latest test release: 2.0.20 ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/fetish/textutils-2.0.20.tar.gz Using -d isn't very useful when sorting numbers. > Here is what happens with "sort -d": > -0.05 -0.00784905 ... _______________________________________________ Bug-textutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-textutils
