Tip

Smart Sorting always lists file names with smaller numbers first.  For instance A2 would come before A12.  David Wincelberg developed Smart Sorting.  CuteFTP Pro 3 uses Smart Sorting by default.

Standard Lexicographic sorting lists file names using one character at a time reading from left to right.  For instance A2 would come AFTER A12. MS Windows uses Standard Lexicographic sorting by default.
