Line in mc.ext that describes what to do for ""Open"" operation must end with ""u"", like this: Open=%cd %p/uc1541://u When user leaves this extfs sort order used before will be restored (even if user changed sort order while being in this vfs). I added some code to /src/filemanager/panel.c. This isn't nice solution, of course. The best way would be use of some interface between script and mc, like script tells mc to turn off sorting with exit code, or just put some control code in the list it prints. This is bigger problem, but the solution I used works and seems to make no problems although maybe it is looking little rough. Yes, it can be called a ""hack"". Why I want this feature: you know files order is important for many 8bit programms that if you copy files in other order the copy wouldn't run. It would be very convinient for user when he open and image of a diskette or a tape that mc turns of sort automatically and then restores sort_order when he cd'es back. Hope this change will be applied.",enhancement,new,major,Future Releases,mc-core,master,,,,,,no branch,
