Subject: Sort data in buffer.
Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:10:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <711a73df0709060210w622da220xc18a8772b14ab90b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I guess it's there, but I couldn't find it.

I have a list of data
! H4
% E5
%CHG E5
() D4
(I) H2
(J) H3
+/- D2
, H2
->C E2
->cm F4
->DEG E4
->F E2
->gal G3
->HMS E3
->IN F4
->kg F2
->kM F3
->lb  F2
->MILE F3
->RAD E4
->| G3
/c H3
1/x C6
10^x c6
<- D5
<=ENG D3
= D2
[] D4
A A1
ABS D2
ACOS C2


I.e. not really simple text. I want to sort it alphabetically (ASCII based say),
and I can't find out how?


How do I do it please.
 I had to mail it to myself, open in a windows editor, sort it, then mail
it back to myself!

TIA
