Since the install of 9.0 I have noticed the annoying (at least it is to me) sort of ls(1) being case insensitive. The man page for ls and "info ls" both claim the default is in ASCII order but is mitigated by the locale and more specifically by LC_LOCALE. My locale is en_US via the LANG environmental variable. Typically, ls(1) did CASE SENSITIVE sorting. Does anyone know how to get the old behavior back?
Thanks to Anders Johansson for the correct solution. It required only the following to be added to my ~/.bash_profile LC_COLLATE=POSIX export LC_COLLATE -- _/_/_/ Bob Pearson gottadoit@mailsnare.net _/_/_/ "The best way to get information on Usenet is not to ask a _/_/_/ question, but to post the wrong information." - Aahz' Law
