I have a folder with 20 some files and am wanting to sort them similar to the way Windows Explorer does. The files I have all have prefixes of block sizes like so:
Take Command - the CMD.EXE replacement has natural sorting.
If you can pad the filenames with zeros then a normal sort will return them ok.
This code will return them sorted numerically:
@echo off
type nul>1024KB.log
type nul>32KB.log
type nul>64KB.log
type nul>4KB.log
type nul>256KB.log
type nul>512KB.log
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for %%a in (*.log) do (
set num=0000000000%%a
set num=!num:~-14!
set $!num!=%%a
)
for /f "tokens=1,* delims==" %%a in ('set $0') do echo %%b
pause
