Thanks for spreading the word! I have been using this for over 20 years -- sorts well in any file system. Sorts well in note taking app titles. I have a keyboard macro in my home Linux machines and in my work Windows machine that bangs out today's date in that format. It is the only proper date format!

It's definitely handy to use with alphabetical sorting, especially if dealing with a cross-filesystem archive since access/modify times are rarely consistent longterm.
