Re: Digestion problem

It took me awhile to find this gem, but please let me know if it helps in
your situation.  In the digest file, please make this "diff" modification:

176c176
foreach (@files) {
---
foreach (sort @files) {

For any novices following this thread, the above means:
Change line 176 from the line before --- to match the line after it.
Short version, add the word/command "sort " before @files in parenthesis.
