Re: [DG-SCRIPTS] bug in dg_olc.c:trigedit_create_index()

Actually, I was a little surprised that this DID work since
what George said is true.  If you do a ls (blah) it does
look like how George showed.  I never noticed though that if you
redirect it to a file it won't like it does on stdout.

To just add to what George said though, you can also do

echo *.trg | tr ' ' '\n' | sort -n > index

This will put it in the numeric order you need.
