Description-en: utility for sorting FAT directory structures
FATSort is a utility that sorts FAT16 and FAT32 partitions. It even
can handle long file name entries. It reads the boot sector and sorts
the directory structure recursively.
This is for example useful for sorting the files on your MP3 player when
it doesn't implement a sorting function itself.
