Hello,
2008/7/2 Chris G cl@isbd.net:
Is it possible to specify a default sort order for all applications to use as opposed to just ls (and/or the default file manager)?
Right, so you know how to do this for konqueror and ls?
I'd like to get files shown in date order rather than alphabetic order *everywhere*, is there some way to tell the system to do this? Even a way to tell Gnome or KDE apps would be useful.
KDE's open and save dialogs allow sorting by date, so any KDE app should be able to handle it. I don't know if there's something you can do to save it as a default sort, but there may be something in ~/.kde/ that you can change.
In fact, KDE's open dialog seems to remember you wanted sorting by date... I bet there's a file in ~/.kde/ that has changed to reflect this.
