Reopen: 884943 Summary: 884943 Sort should support an option --machine-sort Severity: wishlist
O.k. I understand that it is working as defined in the 19th century. So it is maybe not a bug but still a weird behaviour. In my case it takes several hour to find out why I don't get rid of ~ 2.000 false entries in a blocklist for squid. Reason for the lost time and this bug report is the bad/missing documentation. → That is a real bug! At least the `LC_COLLATE` should be mentioned in the man-page and via `--help`. A better solution would be an additional option `--byte-sort` or `--machine-sort` This would be an analog to `--month-sort`, `--numeric-sort`, `--human-numeric-sort`.
