I'm using this version of sort:
address@hidden /tmp]$ sort --version
sort (GNU textutils) 2.0.11
Written by Mike Haertel.
This file has been sorted:
b_1-a
b_1-a
b1-a
b_1-d
b1-d2
b1-d2
b1-d_2
b1-s
b_1-w
b_1-z
b1-z
Shouldn't the order be:
b1-a
b1-d2
b1-d2
b1-d_2
b1-s
b1-z
b_1-a
b_1-a
b_1-d
b_1-w
b_1-z
An older version of sort is more consistent (check b1-d_2):
sort --version
sort (GNU textutils) 2.0
Written by Mike Haertel.
b_1-a
b_1-a
b1-a
b_1-d
b1-d_2
b1-d2
b1-d2
b1-s
b_1-w
b_1-z
b1-z
