Tip:

Smart Sorting always lists file names with smaller numbers first.  For example, A2 comes before A12.  David Wincelberg developed Smart Sorting. CuteFTP uses it by default.
Standard Lexicographic sorting lists file names using one character at a time reading from left to right.  For example, A12 comes before A2. MS Windows uses Standard Lexicographic sorting by default.
