Lazy sort
Posted: 21 May 2008 14:14
Hi, all. I made this request a couple of years back (I think.. a while anyway). When I move a file into a folder in Windows Explorer, the file gets put to the bottom of the listing, and only gets resorted by a refresh or a sort command. It's handy to find new files like this for a download folder, especially when you can't rely on accessed/modified date if the file retains its original time stamp from whereever it came from (such as ftp). XYplorer always resorts, which make finding new files in a large folder to be a chore. My request is to make the Win Explorer behavior an option.
Anyway, this request was nixed way back when on the grounds of it being non-trivial to implement, although IIRC the author did favor the idea. I'm hoping to get luckier the second time around. Crossing fingers.
