Thank you for the report, but that's not a bug. Here's the entry from the Coreutils FAQ http://www.gnu.org/software/fileutils/doc/faq/core-utils-faq.html that addresses your problem: The ls command is not listing files in a normal order!: http://tinyurl.com/8kda (or, if you prefer the long URL, http://www.gnu.org/software/fileutils/doc/faq/core-utils-faq.html#The%20ls%20command%20is%20not%20listing%20files%20in%20a%20normal%20order! ) _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
