I did not include it because I don't think that sorting belongs to the functionality of forms-mode. Ignatios wrote me: as i didn't want to look up the man page for /bin/sort, i wrote a sort function for you forms mode. You may include it in your next distribution to the net or FSF, if you want (as long as there remains a trace of who wrote that ~30 lines). Else tell me please so that i can post the sort code myself. ****** hi does anyone know where i can get this routine? i can't get mail from my server to Ignatios (u502sou@mpirbn.uucp). any help is appreciated chris |----------------------|---------------------- | |the world is spam and | Chris Short | | we are but the key | Computing Research Labatory | |--------|-------------| Box 30001/3 CRL | | New Mexico State University | | Las Cruces, NM 88003-0001 | | Email: Cshort@nmsu.edu Fax:505 646 6218|-------------------| | Voice: 505 646 6216 |SpamKey productions| | -------------------------|-------------------|
