Re: Shrink this sort subroutine

Well, first off, your use of timelocal is broken. And I wouldn't bother doing that anyway... you already have sortable strings!

my @node_list = sort { $nodes{$a}{createtime} cmp $nodes{$b}{createtim
+e} } keys %nodes;

Well, that certainly is shorter... My mistake when I tried that earlier was using '<=>' instead of 'cmp.' Probably should have been suspicious of a string comparison with a non-alphanumeric operator... Argh. Thanks, all... --- donfreenut	[reply]
