Sorting selections in MCEDIT

I've searched all over the net, read the MCEDIT and MC man pages, pressed F1 in the proper context, and I can't find any reference to the sorting parameters for the OPTIONS/SORT command in MCEDIT. I tried a bunch of things to get it to reverse the default sort order, and finally found that "-r"

. What a shame we can't use regex, anyway. It's trivial to implement a good deal of it, and it's quite fast, too. Oh well. :) Much appreciated! --Ben ___ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc

I have written a language where operations on content are specified in brackets, like this: [a content] The brackets can appear anywhere on a line, and they can be nested. I would *like* to have the brackets one color, the keyword ('a' in the above example) another color, and the remainder

I use mcedit constantly, running it on an OS X 10.5.8 terminal to numerous remote redhat 9 linux machines from within mc, and on occasion invoked as mcedit (which I presume, as per the docs, is just mc -e.). On occasion, I run into a file with ^M at the end of a line in MCEDIT. I can delete
