      From: address@is.invalid              JJ,              > For Windows, there are tools for sorting directory entries       > in FAT drives.              A tool for sorting a directory ? For something that a small batch script       can do as wel ?              1) Move the to-be-sorted files to a temp directory (on the same drive*)              2) Create a sorted list of the files in the temp directory              3) Read the sorted list and move the files one-by-one back to the origional       directory              * moving on the same drive just moves the metadata, not the contents of the       file.              Total number of lines in the batch file : 7, if you include creating and       removing the temp directory.              If you want to have the folders at the top (File Explorer style) it only       takes a single extra line.              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
