Sort order for files
 You can control the order in which you  see  the  files in a
 directory   using   the  second  group  of  options  in  the
 Left/Right menus:

    Name          Sort files alphabetically by name.
    eXtension     Sort  files  alphabetically  by  extension.
                  Files  with  the  same  extension  will  be
                  sorted by name.
    tiMe          Sort files by time, with  the  most  recent
                  files first. Files with the same time  will
                  be sorted alphabetically.
    Size          Sort files by size, with the largest  files
                  first. Files with the  same  size  will  be
                  sorted alphabetically.
    Unsorted      Show the files in the same order as the DOS
                  "dir" command shows the files.

   Notes:
     .  Directories will always appear in the directory panel
        before any files (unless you've selected the Unsorted
        option).

     .  Uppercase names are always directories, and lowercase
        names are always files:

                DIR_NAME           A directory name
                file_name          A file name

     .  The   file  names  and  directory   names  containing
        national  letters  will  be  displayed  correctly  if
        the "country="  statement  is  set  correctly  in the
        config.sys file.

     .  If the appropriate panel (Left or Right) either isn't
        visible or isn't a file panel, selecting a sort order
        will change it into a file panel.
