Works here (Windows 7). Something I'm badly missing is the ability to sort based on a certain number of fields. I think what many people would want to do is sorting lines according to the first field (only).
So I think [sort( could really take two (optional) arguments: start index (default: 0) + number of fields (<= 0: end of line -> default) [sort 0 1( -> sort by the leading field [sort 1 1( -> sort by field 1 [sort 1( -> sort by all fields starting at 1, like the current [sort -k 1( [sort 2 2( -> sort by fields 2 and 3 etc. What do you think?
