[fixed] Sort by name - by ASCII Code or other? Special chars are at the end [fixed]

Post by masterjp »

In most of my gallery apps for android the folder and filename sort by name use the ASCII or other code table.
Currently chars like "!_-#0123456789" are at the end after char "z".

I often use these special chars to sort folders at the beginn of my folder collection and file list.

Cars
