IIRC, the sort handler currently available at www.applemods.com uses
bubble sort, which is only useful for known small data sets, and really
easy to implement anyway.
I'd love to see a good quicksort or radixsort handler in applemods. I'd
download it and use it. I'd also wonder if there an osax with some good
sorts? I'm not aware of it, but I haven't plowed through all the docs
for osax I have, let alone know everything that's out there. Why do I
suspect Akua Sweets will have this?
