One of the most infuriating things that causes me much frustration when I am using Linux is the completely assinine way that files get sorted when sorting by name. This is compounded by the output of ls -l
producing a different sort order than, say, Nautilus.
Is there a simple way to get Windows-like collation in Linux so I can stop beating my head against the wall?
Symbols > Numbers > Letters (modified letters such as o-umlaut
just count as o
)
This has been an open issue on the GNOME bug tracker for about 12 years or so now and I assume this will never be fixed properly, so perhaps there is a work around I can do?
