NAME

       natsort - Natural sorting for shell

DESCRIPTION

       usage: natsort [-h] [--version] [-p] [-f LOW HIGH] [-F LOW HIGH] [-e EXCLUDE]

              [-r] [-t {int,float,real,f,i,r}] [--nosign] [-s] [--noexp] [-l] [entries ...]

       Performs a natural sort on entries given on the command-line.

       Arguments are read from sys.argv.

   positional arguments:
       entries
              The entries to sort. Taken from stdin if nothing is given on the command line.

   options:
       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       --version
              show program's version number and exit

       -p, --paths
              Interpret  the  input as file paths. This is not strictly necessary to sort all file paths, but in
              cases where there are OS-generated file paths like "Folder/" and "Folder  (1)/",  this  option  is
              needed to make the paths sorted in the order you expect ("Folder/" before "Folder (1)/").

       -f LOW HIGH, --filter LOW HIGH
              Used for keeping only the entries that have a number falling in the given range.

       -F LOW HIGH, --reverse-filter LOW HIGH
              Used for excluding the entries that have a number falling in the given range.

       -e EXCLUDE, --exclude EXCLUDE
              Used to exclude an entry that contains a specific number.

       -r, --reverse
              Returns in reversed order.

       -t {int,float,real,f,i,r}, --number-type {int,float,real,f,i,r}, --number_type {int,float,real,f,i,r}
              Choose  the  type  of  number to search for. "float" will search for floating-point numbers. "int"
              will only search for integers. "real" is a shortcut for "float" with --sign. "i" is a synonym  for
              "int", "f" is a synonym for "float", and "r" is a synonym for "real".The default is int.

       --nosign
              Do not consider "+" or "-" as part of a number, i.e.  do not take sign into consideration. This is
              the default.

       -s, --sign
              Consider  "+"  or  "-"  as  part  of  a  number, i.e. take sign into consideration. The default is
              unsigned.

       --noexp
              Do not consider an exponential as part of a number, i.e. 1e4, would be considered as 1,  "e",  and
              4, not as 10000. This only effects the --number-type=float.

       -l, --locale
              Causes natsort to use locale-aware sorting. You will get the best results if you install PyICU.
