Guys, Hate to be the party-pooper, but this thread is starting to smell a bit odd. The smell reminds me of something... when I was a kid at school... during the break.... ahh, that's it. This thing smells like a bikeshed. :-) For what it's worth the original patch looked good to me. The nanosecond patch is fine too. Please, no more intimate discussion of a command line flag that few people use, and if it doesn't work correctly now could have been worked around with a pipe to sort. I'm guessing the messed up order was because the files that were out of kilter were the files being hard-linked to but don't have the time to check. So in some ways, the output was predictable. Either way, I say commit or let it die... no... more... ls... :-) -- Paul Robinson http://www.iconoplex.co.uk/
