I have a problem with the "sort" utility. I want a
simple ASCII sort but I cannot seem to get it. It is
most frustrating. I have tried "set LC_ALL=C" and
several others also but it seemed to have no effect.
What can I do? Please, help me. Sorting is useless.
Here are some samples of "sort" on my computer running
SuSE 10.1.
sort looks like this:
alias BNc 'grep -vi \!* ' # piped input see butnotc
alias BN 'grep -v \!* ' # piped input see butnot
alias BOc 'grep -i \!* ' # piped input see butonlyc
alias BO 'grep \!* ' # piped input see butonly
sort -d -f looks like this:
alias BNc 'grep -vi \!* ' # piped input see butnotc
alias BN 'grep -v \!* ' # piped input see butnot
alias BOc 'grep -i \!* ' # piped input see butonlyc
alias BO 'grep \!* ' # piped input see butonly
An ASCII sort should look like this:
alias BN 'grep -v \!* ' # piped input see butnot
alias BNc 'grep -vi \!* ' # piped input see butnotc
alias BO 'grep \!* ' # piped input see butonly
alias BOc 'grep -i \!* ' # piped input see butonlyc
