Exercise 5.16 - -d makes comparison on letters, numbers, blanks¶
Question¶
Add the -d (directory order
) option, which makes comparisons only on
letters, numbers and blanks. Make sure it works in conjunction with -f.

Explanation¶
This is a command-line sorting program that can sort text lines in different ways based on various options. The -d flag sorts the lines of input in the directory order, that is ignoring punctuation marks. The -f folds the input, that is, it does a case insensitive comparison of lower case and upper case lines.
