[nfbcs] WSH Script for Sorting Text

And there is a MSDOS program called QSORT that will sort records longer 
than one line. Only problem is that it sorts in ASCII sequence rather 
than by date. But that gets me partway there.

There is a neat little program called TextPad which has a sort but then
so too does Microsoft Word.

There is a sort of simple sort command-line command that is part of
Windows.  Have you determined that won't work.
You may have to redirect the input or output to a file, and I know that
redirection is a little complicated for you Unix guys.
<smile>  If your WSH script is doing other things, you should still be
able to run this from the script.  You can get basic help by running
"SORT /?" without the quotes of course.
