&gt; &gt; Sort the names alphabetically, case-insensitive. That will be easier
&gt; &gt; for most users, including long-time Unix users.
&gt;
&gt; I mentioned the dictionary reference because I believe that's the proper
&gt; grammatical manner to sort. That's the type of sort we're producing,
&gt; IMO. I think it also leads to less brain cycles needed to find the sought
&gt; after subject.
The majority wins (too late for this batch but I will update my scripts
for the next one.)
