                                   Overview

       SRDEMO demonstrates a library for sorting file names that may
       contain digits.  For example, the output of this program when run
       on the sample files follows:

       Correctly sorted filenames that may contain numbers:

       FILE            FILE.000        FILE.BAK        FILE0000
       FILE0A          FILE1           FILE1A          FILE2
       FILE0002        FILE2.DAT       FILE10          FILE23
       FILE24          FILE102         FILE125         FILE127
       FILE135         FILE1002

            Notice that leading zeros are ignored and numbers of
       different lengths are sorted properly.  If you use the routines
       in SRLIB, your users will see properly sorted file names even if
       some indexed set of files unexpectedly needs another digit.  For
       example, suppose a user is indexing newsletters as Vxx#nn.TXT and
       receives issue 100.  Then, instead of V15#100.TXT appearing
       between V15#10.TXT and V15#11.TXT, it will be displayed in its
       proper place.  Using SRLIB, will also save your users the
       inconvenience of typing leading zeros (or spaces in a long file
       name).

            As a first test of SRLIB, enter ZOPEN @LISTFILE followed by
       SRDEMO /W (or /W4).
