SORT macro
On the command line, SORT x y will sort the currently-edited or -viewed
member using column x for a length of y as the sort key. It *might* be
possible to specify multiple "keys" and/or reverse collating sequence,
neither of which I've tried.
-----------------<unsnip>-------------------------
SORT A B A|D C D A|D E F A|D
Where A C & E are starting columns, B D & F anr field length and A|D
refers to ASCENDING or DESCENDING
Works like a champ! Used it many times. Just don't overlap the sort key
fields.
