NAME

natsort - manual page for natsort 8.4.0

DESCRIPTION

usage: natsort [-h] [--version] [-p] [-f LOW HIGH] [-F LOW HIGH] [-e EXCLUDE]

[-r] [-t {int,float,real,f,i,r}] [--nosign] [-s] [--noexp] [-l] [entries ...]

Performs a natural sort on entries given on the command-line.

Arguments are read from sys.argv.

positional arguments:

The entries to sort. Taken from stdin if nothing is given on the command line.

options:

show this help message and exit
show program's version number and exit
Interpret the input as file paths. This is not strictly necessary to sort all file paths, but in cases where there are OS-generated file paths like "Folder/" and "Folder (1)/", this option is needed to make the paths sorted in the order you expect ("Folder/" before "Folder (1)/").
Used for keeping only the entries that have a number falling in the given range.
Used for excluding the entries that have a number falling in the given range.
Used to exclude an entry that contains a specific number.
Returns in reversed order.
Choose the type of number to search for. "float" will search for floating-point numbers. "int" will only search for integers. "real" is a shortcut for "float" with --sign. "i" is a synonym for "int", "f" is a synonym for "float", and "r" is a synonym for "real".The default is int.
Do not consider "+" or "-" as part of a number, i.e. do not take sign into consideration. This is the default.
Consider "+" or "-" as part of a number, i.e. take sign into consideration. The default is unsigned.
Do not consider an exponential as part of a number, i.e. 1e4, would be considered as 1, "e", and 4, not as 10000. This only effects the --number-type=float.
Causes natsort to use locale-aware sorting. You will get the best results if you install PyICU.
