Description Roman Fordinal 2005-04-28 10:18:15 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

i am currently using kde v. 3.3.2 and i have a problem with filename/folder sorting in kde apps. i got used to have folders beginning with underscore grouped at the beginning of the list/end of the list, depending on the alpha sorting set. seems like this behavior has changed at some point and now these folders are scattered among others, ignoring the underline and being sorted from the first alphanumeric character - f.e. "settings, _temp, tip, _trash" instead of "_temp, _trash,settings, temp" as before. is there a way to change this behavior?
i tried to find a way myself, but had no luck there. in console listing, everything looks ok - the old way.
any ideas?

same problem in KDE-3.4.1

Comment 2 Wolfgang Winkler 2005-08-24 20:07:04 UTC

Setting LC_ALL=C changes this behaviour in KDE-3.4.1 resulting: "_temp, _trash, settings, tip" but files starting with numbers are still sorted first: "5something, _temp, setting,..."

I have `LANG="sk_SK.utf8"` set for my national environment and the LC_COLLATE was set also for sk_SK.utf8 by default and it was wrong, but overriding it with manually setting LC_COLLATE="C" solves this problem.
