Improving 'sort by name' in terms of multi-.. space?place? numeric values

[tfedyna (Trevor Fedyna)]

Hi!!
Sooo sorting by name when inclusive of numerical value:

#the_digits, which I understand from a coder/computational perspective.

would be legit if sort by name was as exists: alpha-numeric: and then takes into account multi-… place? is that the right word? multi-digit numbers?

Would be more than happy to sign NDA and get into the mix with the source to attempt to append tiny features like this into the mix.

Thanks @trevor! Great observation. I’m sure there are already built solutions to address this as it is a very common problem. @mingbo, what are your thoughts? I did quick search and I found this:

sort string-numbers

Thanks @trevor and @mostapha,

Just made some improvements. A new developer’s version will be ready in a couple of hours.
