In Windows it's sorted by name, but it's case sensitive, which is incorrect. It should sort the way Windows Explorer does. |

In the Japanese version of Windows 10, folders are sorted by alphabetically without case. It's just the same as Explorer. |

The issue is about the Linux version. Using Ubuntu 20.04.3 and SDLMAME 0.239. The folders are sorted by date. |

So, this isn't a MAME issue, but an OS configuration issue - is that correct? Mine shows alphabetical when searching for folders to add and I don't think it is something MAME controls. |

All other softwares browse folders in sorted by name. Not look being a OS configuration. |

I would’ve thought that since AJR put in locale-aware sorting this should be fixed on all operating systems. |

Actually, that’s not the same menu, it’s a different thing. It’s also a menu hard-coded to use Tab to select an item, no way to use it with a gamepad. |

Menus for adding or changing folders were not being sorted, so the items were appearing in whatever order the filesystem returned them. Should sort in locale collation order now. Also fixed an issue with “..” only allowing you to move up one directory level after which it wouldn’t change directory at all. |

Locale-aware file sorting was not actually added by me, despite GitHub's blame display. It appears to have been originally introduced by mahlemiut in commit 63b7b9d521712404dc35156ef8d7e606440b4156. |
