A problem with it is figuring out how to add lots of options to sort. We're running out of letters. This one probably doesn't deserve a single letter. And yet single letters are the only syntax we currently have for sorting different fields with different options. There's also the problem of implementing it correctly -- it's a bit trickier than one might think, especially if you want powers-of-2 rather than powers-of-10. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
