BeOS's Tracker file manager had a simple method for sorting on secondary columns. Clicking on one column header would sort files by that column. Shift+clicking on another column would then perform a secondary sort on that column. I don't remember if it supported further nesting, but combined with its ability to display file attributes as columns, it made organizing collections of files such as mp3s and emails, very nice. The primary sort column was visually indicated by a solid line under the column name, and the secondary sort column had a dashed underline. >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> rhythmbox-devel mailing list >> rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org >> http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel > > _______________________________________________ > rhythmbox-devel mailing list > rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel > _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
