Windows (as usual) has lots of options, this seems popular: https://www.anerty.net/software/file/DriveSort/ - but Mac users? ?
I'm on a mac so this is the solution I finally found (which might also work on linux).
First you'll need to install fatsort - best method I've found is using https://brew.sh via brew install fatsort
. Then using your favourite terminal app:
- Put sd card in your machine (Mac/PC) and run
mount
on the command line - take note of the/dev/…
path NEXT is mounted on (for instance, mine is /dev/disk2` - Unmount from the command line using
diskutil unmount /Volumes/NEXT
(leave the sd card inserted) - Run fatsort as root:
sudo fatsort -D /GAMES/ -a -c -o a /dev/disk2
- this says to only sort /GAMES and all the sub directories (-D), and ascii sort (-a), ignore casing (-c), files and directories are not differentiated (-o a)
Now my /GAMES directory is sorted and easier to navigate ?
