sort method - dirs beginning with underline

Post by *amiga »

I don't know, if it is a bug or a feature.
In old TC dirs beginning with underline are listed on top.
In new TCb3 now dirs beginning with numbers are on first place.

How can I get my old sort order back?

amiga,
What do you have set in Configuration - Options - Display - Sort method?

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

under sort method I have set the same as in TC704 --> alphabetical, considering accents.

btw, this seems again a Win98-problem - under XP it sorts correctly.

TC stores file names in Unicode format also on Win9x/ME now, so it has to use different functions for sorting which apparently treat underscores differently. I will check whether there is a way to get the old order back, but I cannot promise anything yet.

Thank you for the efforts.
That would be very nice. :D

In XP TC sorts not correctly if the filename contains blanks, e.g. "image.jpg" and "image resized.jpg". Sort method is also alphabetical, considering accents.

I could find a solution now - the problem was the missing function CompareStringW() on Windows 9x/ME. Converting to ANSI first fixes the problem.
