In <1413@gazette.bcm.tmc.edu>, jgsmith@watson.bcm.tmc.edu (James G. Smith) asks
for a nice sort X-command that will allow coordinated sorting of additional
containers.

No sooner said than done.  Actually, done sooner than said.

You need Frederic Rinaldi's "fullSort" XFCN.  It can return an indexed list of
how the elements were sorted, and can even sort other containers for you if
you give it back the list.  Has lots of other really nice features.  Should
be available in net archives, and is also on the Developer's Helper CD-ROM "A
Disc Called Wanda."  If you can't find it anywhere I suppose I could be
convinced to mail or post it.
