Hello list,
It's really nice to have the directories grouped together at the front of
the directory listing. In my opinion.
I asked for this before, and was told "NO!" I assume the answer has not
changed.
Anyway, many years ago, I had made the small change to implement the
feature. It's a quick kluge, and it's lacking coding goodness. I just
instrumented the current code, and thought I'd share with the world.
Code base: fileutils-4.1
Sincerely,
John "Eljay" Love-Jensen
