Files tab

[powtrix]

the sequence list of the name in `Files` tab is not 100% correct, eg.:

[name] [Done] [%] [#pieces] [Pieces] [Priority]

..

mablah\mblah.ext

name2\name2.ext

name\name.ext

oxxxx\oxxxx.ext

<...>

in order, `name2` dir comes first of `name` dir.

Just fix the word sequence..

thanks for µtorrent!! it WORKS!

Doesn't the same happen when you have stuff like name10 and name 2 -- name10 comes first? It's not wrong, it's just not lexicographically sorted.

[boo]

well, windows does the same thing, so it's not a bug.

but of course, it might be possible for ludde to change it so it works like you want it,

[Ultima]

Windows does the same thing, but you can also set it in TweakUI, I believe.

C:\.tmp>md test

C:\.tmp>cd test

C:\.tmp\test>md mablah

C:\.tmp\test>md name2

C:\.tmp\test>md name

C:\.tmp\test>md oxxxx

C:\.tmp\test>dir /b /on

mablah

name

name2

oxxxx

this sequence i mean.

Try making files and calling them name10 and name2 and testing that again... You'll notice that XP behaves in the same exact way (by not explicitly saying that name is name1, it's not being listed correctly as part of that sequence). Now I'm not trying to say that this shouldn't be "fixed," but just saying that it's not a bug either.

C:\.tmp\test>md name10

C:\.tmp\test>md "name 2"

C:\.tmp\test>dir /b /on

mablah

name

name 2

name10

name2

oxxxx

C:\.tmp\test>

//

' ' char is first (correct).

lol I was looking at what you're posting from the wrong point of view... I see what you're trying to say now...

[powtrix]

lol sorry bad englix....

well happy new year 2oo6

[boo]

windows ordering of files is wierd. The logical way is to sort by the first letter,

then the second letter and then the third letter etc

Which mean that 'name' that is four letters should come first, not 'name2' which is five.

[Ultima]

Well, if you have name and name2, Windows does sort it as name then name2. But if you have name10 and name2, name10 comes before name2, since lexicographic sorting isn't enabled by default.

[boo]

I have win xp sp2 and it sorts like this =

name2

name10

name

And the logical way should really be =

name

name2

name 2

name10

[Ultima]

lol your XP must be a little screwy then. Mine is sorted as name, name2, name10...

[boo]

it has always been like that for me on all the computers I have used.

Have you used the tweak program or something on your computer?

[Ultima]

I used TweakUI, but that only affects the order of the name10 and name2. It would appear that your XP is tweaked or somewhat screwy, as it's supposed to list name10 before name2 when left on alphanumeric sorting (as opposed to lexicographic sorting). In either case (tweaked or untweaked), name appears before either numbered folders.

Untweaked

Tweaked

That's how it's always been for me on just about every computer I've used, and I'm almost 100% sure that's how it's supposed to be, period.
