Welcome to IWETHEY!

New What do you mean, traditionally?
GNU sort has worked like that for as long as I've been using it. Now Solaris sort, however, doesn't need the -n.

New I mean what they mean in their documentation
From "info sort"

*** WARNING *** The locale specified by the environment affects sort
order. Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that uses native
byte values.

New That's character set, not numeric.
Two very different things.

New The example you gave was of numeric sort not working.
How is that related to character set?

-scott anderson

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New No, it was not of *numeric* sort not working
It was an example of the alphabetical sort doing something that I had not expected. Since I didn't expect the behaviour, it lead to a bug.

New No
I know what point you're trying to make. My point is that you picked an asinine way of making it. Stupid generalizations (that aren't even remotely accurate) only hurt your argument.

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New Whatever
Thanks for making me sorry I posted.
