When I add new shows I always create new folders just so I can find them quickly: Misc otr misc otr1 misc otr2 etc The sort by date would allow me to copy all new files to the misc otr folder and find them immediately as they would be listed in chronological order. Great idea!

Hello, I'm about to implement a sort by date+time feature, as a choice to the standard alphabetic sorting. Am I the only one needing this? It surprises me that there is no stronger demand. My standard situation is that I browse my folders (representing albums), looking for the new stuff I added recently. However, when I enter the directory with the tracks, a sort by time would be no good, disturbing the track order. So to avoid switching the sort mode all the time, I'd personally prefer to sort only directories by date, the files in alpabetical order like it used to be. (What a strange mode.) Other people with lots of (e.g. chart) tracks in a directory may however want to have files sorted by date as well. So how about a new option: - sort alphabetically (default) - sort by date+time - sort directories by time, files alphabetically Or an independent choice for files and directories? Or does nobody except me need/want any of those? Jörg -- "Sie haben neue Mails!" - Die GMX Toolbar informiert Sie beim Surfen!
