If you have really large lists (on the order of thousands of items) then you might want to do a shell or quick sort. I have those implemented in AppleScript so let me know if you need them. Honestly though, if you are sorting more than a few thousand items with AppleScript then you might want to look at going to another language such as C or Java or the like.
A bit confusing for me: what you call the "shell sort" is written in C, isn't it? What good would there be to write [yet] another "sort" in C?
