Thank you very much for the information.
I've tried with various locale and collation settings, but I can't make it
work differently (from sorting like a1 a3 a20), except if LC_COLLATE is set
to an invalid collation, which will make mc revert to sorting normally (e.g.
a1 a20 a3) but then UTF-8 support will be broken.
I've also tried compiling and running mc from the latest sources,
4.7.0-pre4, with the same result, so it might be something in my system
that's making Midnight Commander sort like that.
I've verified my system's strcoll function orders strings as expected (i.e.
strcoll("a10", "a3") returns -1).
Is there anything else I can do, try or post about my system that might help
determine what's going on?
Thank you very much for your help
