Hi Juergen, Your scheme as printed has two J's - so January and July are indistinguishable! I would suggest the letters should instead be JFMAYULGSOND. Happy apocalypse!

Re: [ccp4bb] Today ...
On neither case does an alphanumeric sort coincide with a chronological sort. The obvious solution is to petition to have the months renamed alphabetically.

Re: [ccp4bb] Today ...
Hi David, on a computer I agree 20121221 is the way to go (but even then you could still do ls -lta), but on Eppendorf tubes that is precious real estate for other important numbers or letters hence the 12d21 :-) And thanks for catching my double J this was just a test if somebody would actually read what I wrote :-) And the corrected values were indeed right, aka following the simple rule I mentioned.
