Sorting Roman numbers in file names

Post by *gridsleep »

TC 10 does not sort Roman numbers in file names completely properly. One through eight (I to VIII) are sorted properly but nine (IX) is placed just after four (IV). I realize that Roman numbers are archaic and are now found only in movie and book publishing dates and building foundations, although that is also going out of style. I only noticed this because I chose to number the Star Wars films with the traditional Roman numbers that appear in their title screens. Few movie or book series get to nine volumes, so it went unnoticed until recently. This is obviously very low priority.

gridsleep,
TC does not support sorting by Roman numerals and has never claimed to be able to do so.

Unfortunately Total Commander cannot know when a text is a Roman number ,or just a random letter also used for Roman numbers.
