I think for haskell this was not 100% sorted, for perl there's almost A-Z sorting. It's nice to have, but the more these files grow, the more time you spend with correcting the commits where the A-Z plea message was ignored or overlooked. If all of them were sorted and it would be pointed out in "Documentation > Contributing" I'd agree, but at the moment I won't fix this patch series. Usually for these long files I just do an "M-g g 80000" to jump to the very end. -- ng0 For non-prism friendly talk find me on http://www.psyced.org
