Hello
I wish to sort a list of filenames.
As it may long, I thought that a shell script would be a good tool.
Alas, it doesn't sort the way I want.
May you find where is the wrongdoer (yes, it's me)
--[SCRIPT]
property lineFeed : ASCII character 10
property maListe : {}
set my maListe to {"bug_or_flaw.pages", "anomalies_Numbers.pages",
"apostrophes.pages", "AppleWorks & AppleScripts.pages"}
set tt to my recolle(my maListe, lineFeed)
set tt to (do shell script "echo " & quoted form of tt & " | sort")
set my maListe to paragraphs of tt
(* returns
{"AppleWorks & AppleScripts.pages",
"anomalies_Numbers.pages",
"apostrophes.pages",
"bug_or_flaw.pages"}
but I want
{"anomalies_Numbers.pages",
"apostrophes.pages",
"AppleWorks & AppleScripts.pages",
"bug_or_flaw.pages"}
*)
--=============
on recolle(l, d)
local t
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to d
set t to l as text
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
return t
end recolle
--=============
