Inconsistent Ordering of Files in the Index

[ImranR98]

Zoottelkeeper orders files in the index in a way that is not consistent with Obsidian's own ordering, specifically when it comes to numbers.

This is how files are ordered in Obsidian's navigation tab:

But this is how the same folder is shown in Zoottelkeeper's index:

Obsidian recognizes that 9 < 10, but Zoottelkeeper thinks 10 should be right after 1 as that is technically right if you're just thinking about alphabetical ordering.

Is this intended behaviour? I think it would make more sense to go with Obsidian's default approach.

I noticed very similar behavior when using dataview (plugin) to sort metadata.

• For instance, if I have a dataset that's 1, 200, 15, 3, it will basically sort in 1-15-200-3 order.

I had to make sure to convert fields into numbers using the number() function.
I'm sure within this plugin, we can do something similar.

HI @seanjun21 , @ImranR98 ,
Thanks for reporting this issue, the order you get is called lexicographical which results a bit different order in case of numbers. But I see it is a problem, so I fix it soon.
