Very powerful panel file sorting

Сортировки файлов в панели:

1. С вводом Offset при нажатии шорката, если вместо ввода числа нажать Enter, то будет использовано прежнее значение. Стартовое значение (по умолчанию) 0, т.е. обычная сортировка по имени.

2. C вводом Symbols аналогично п.1, значение по умолчанию "-_ ".

п.1 и п.2 с игнорированием символов - игнорируется то, что Майкрософт считает символами.

3. По группе цифр в имени файла с поиском в прямом, либо обратном направлении.

4. По подстроке, захваченной регэкспом. Регэкспы можно комментировать, в этом случае первую строку начинаем с -- (2-х минусов), далее комментарий, затем перевод строки и на второй строке пишем сам регэксп. Порядок сортировки можно изменить, добавив в конец регэкспа конструкцию {!:...}, где вместо ... указываем порядок возврата захваченных групп, например {!:$3$2$1}. Для поиска каждой группы по всей строке вне зависимости от их позиции, используется конструкция {?:pat1}{?:pat2}{?:pat3}{!:$3$2$1}, где patN - характерный паттерн группы, захватывается первый совпавший.

5. По функции пользователя. Примеры:
