I'm trying to make a sorting example for Fl_Table that shows how to do
primary vs. secondary sorting, and I wanted to make sure I use the right icon.

(Here comes some ascii art; view with fixed width fonts!)
For forward/reverse sorting, we're all used to the up/down engraved triangle, 
eg:

 _____________________________________________________..
|            __  |                               |
| From       \/  |   Subject                     |
|________________|_______________________________|______..


..but for primary vs. secondary sorting, I'm not sure if there's a "standard"
indication. I was thinking of a "1" and a "2" next to the arrow, eg:

 _____________________________________________________..
|           __   |                          __   |
| From      \/ 1 |   Subject                \/ 2 |
|________________|_______________________________|______..


..where in this case the "From" column is primary, and the "Subject" secondary.
Would that be right, or are there better indicator icons for this?
