Debian Linux question

[dougo]

Is it my imagination, or did /bin/ls used to sort by case? Now it puts, for example, "README" down among the "r"s instead of before all lowercase filenames. When did this change? Is this a concession to Windows case-insensitivity or something?

alias ls (setenv LC_COLLATE POSIX; ls \!*)

(or something to that effect)
