Hi,
It would be great if 'sort' could correctly sort numbers such as:1K 234M
2G. So that a list
30K
20M
1G
Is considered correctly sorted.

Kind regards

most people, and thus the country as a whole, to a permanent state of
mediocrity, since people are unable to be spontaneous, creative and
self-confident if they cannot use their first language"
