4-4. File Sort

Full pathnames ("/DCIM/100CANON") are sorted in alphabetical order.
If there are six directories; "/"; "/CUSTOM"; "/FREE"; "/DCIM/100CANON"; "/DCIM/101CANON"; "/DC97/CTG_0020",
they are sorted in the following order: "/" -> "/CUSTOM" -> "/DC97/CTG_0020" -> "/DCIM/100CANON" ->
"/DCIM/101CANON" -> "/FREE"
<File name sorting specifications>
Files specified in the DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) standards (the file name with 8 characters excluding the
extensions, and with the latter 4-digit figures) are sorted to the top of the list by priority.
Also, DCF files are sorted using the last 4-digits, which are recognized as a number, and sorted in ascending order. For non-
DCF files, if the file name includes numbers, they are recognized as numbers, and are sorted in ascending order also.
Sorting is performed for each directory.
As the SELPHY DS700 can work with up to 999 files, the 1,000th file and later are not sorted.
Detailed sorting specifications are as follows:
File order is determined using the rules in the following order to sort from Low to High in ascending order:
A. When one is a DCF file, and the other is a non-DCF file, the DCF file is low.
eg. IMG_0001.JPG < IMG_FILE.JPG
B. When both files are DCF files,
B-1. The last 4-digits (numbers) of each file name are recognized as a number, with the smaller number low.
eg. IMG_0001.JPG < IMG_0002.JPG,
eg. IMG_0005.JPG < 07240010.JPG (The latter figures are 0005 and 0010.)
B-2. When the result of the comparison in B-1 above is the same, the files are then sorted in alphabetical order.
eg. ABC_0001.JPG < ABD_0001.JPG
eg. IMG_0001.JPG < IMG_0001.TIF (J is "lower" than T.)
C. When both files are non-DCF files,
C-1. From the beginning of the file name, the position of first number is detected, sorting by distance in ascending
order.
eg. IMG001.JPG < IMG_001.JPG
C-2. When the result of the comparison in C-1 above is the same, numbers are sorted in ascending order.
eg. IMG001.JPG < ABC002.JPG
C-3. When the result of the comparison in C-2 above is the same, the length of the numerical string is sorted in
ascending order.
eg. IMG001.JPG < ABC0001.JPG (The length of the former is 3, and the latter is 4.)
C-4. When the result of the comparison in C-3 above is the same, the next character is recognized as the top of the file
name,
and the process returns to C-1.
eg. A_1_2_.JPG < A_1_2_3.JPG (as the results of the comparison in the first (1) and second (2) loops are the
same, in the third loop,
the distance to the next number of the former is 0.)
C-5. When the result of repetition from C1 to C4 is the same, the files are sorted in alphabetical order, as in B-2.
eg. A_1_2.JPG < A_1_2.TIF
