Hi,
An ftp server that I access using ange-ftp was upgraded and now
it won't support sort by date with "ls -lt" anymore (it always
sort the listing by name).
Sorting by date in ange-ftp dired is such an important feature to
me that I'm considering sorting the ls output in elisp (in my
dired-after-readin-hook function).
I have two questions:
1) have anyone done this? 2) if not, what functions would you
recommend for decoding the dates in the ls listing? I've
included a sample below for reference:
-rw-r--r-- 1 kin kin 28705 Jul 7 00:56 foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 kin kin 9644 Sep 6 05:20 bar
Thanks!
