C:list - does not sort large files right

Program: C:list
Version: List 53.1 (16.6.08)

I have a file of 2300362796 bytes. If I do "list sort size" on the directory with this file, it will come up first instead of last. Files below the 2 GB barrier are sorted in an ascending order, ie. the largest is last as it is documented. And vice versa with "list sort reversesize".

That's a very old version of List. The version issued with Update 4 is V53.4, I think.

Please try it with the latest version, because that sounds like the sort of problem that betatesters would have pointed out. I'd do it myself but I don't have any big files to test it with.

List from 2008 is by far not the oldest from C:.

The only version of list in that update is 37.5 I'm afraid.

Thematic, you are right, the version of C:List was not updated for any of the Updates 1-4.

However, I can confirm that in the current version (53.5), the fault you described has been fixed. A 3.7 GB file is listed in the right place.
