This utility sorts lines on the clipboard into alphabetical order.  A 
line is defined as any number of characters terminated by a carriage 
return.  A maximum of 1000 lines can be sorted at once.

Use the Font/DA Mover to install the Sort DA into your system file.

To use sort, copy the text you want to sort onto the clipboard, then 
invoke Sort.  If you are using the DA version, pull down the Apple menu 
and select Sort. Sort will beep once when the sort is completed.  It will 
beep three times if it could not perform the sort for some reason - 
usually lack of memory.  If it cannot sort the lines, Sort will leave the 
clipboard untouched. When the sort is completed paste the text back in.

Sort uses the International Utilities Package to organize the lines of 
text in true dictionary order.  Leading blanks are NOT ignored. Lines 
beginning with blanks or tabs will sort ahead of lines beginning with 
text.  Diacritical marks are considered, as are special characters. 

Please give a copy of Sort to anyone who can use it.
