Interpret numbers when sorting:
As whole numbers
enables a sorting algorithm which
is similar to the default sorting of, for example, Windows Explorer, Mac OS X’s
Finder or Nautilus, with regards to numbers at the beginning or within filenames.
It combines consecutive digits to a number used for sorting, taking leading zeros
into account.
As digits
disables this algorithm, and causes every digit to be compared sepa-
rately. The following table demonstrates the two sortings.
