FinderSort is a stand-in for the Finder's still missing 'sort' command.

This handler takes a Finder reference to items on disk and returns a list of those items sorted by name, kind, comment, version, label index, modification date, creation date, or one of two different interpretations of size.

What's New:
Version 0.6 more closely follows the way the OS X Finder handles certain signs, diacriticals and ligatures when sorting by name.

FinderSort 0.6: FinderSort is a stand-in for the Finder's still missing 'sort' command.
InfoItems 1.1: InfoItems show the following properties about Finder items: displayed name, name extension, container, locked, kind, logical size, physical size in KB, physical size in MB, creation date, modification date, URL, file type, ascii and hex values of file type, file creator, ascii and hex values of file creator, owner, group, permissions, octal values of permissions, short version, long version, alias, package folder, visible, busy, extension hidden, default application, comment.
FileVault-proof Finder selection to alias list 1.2: FileVault-proof Finder selection to alias list is a workaround for a major FileVault/Finder applescript bug in Panther/Tiger: When applescripting Apple's Finder, it fails to treat FileVault-protected items as regular Finder items - an unbelievable bug in Panther's original FileVault incarnation that sadly survived the move to Tiger.
Comment Converter 2.0.1: The Mac OS X Finder can't read comments created in Mac OS 9 or earlier.
iPassepartout 1.2: iPassepartout is a very powerful Cocoa application for MacOS X that allows you to see/read/play/select/copy/ immediately the content of any kind of file from a list of files found or dragged.
A Better Finder Attributes 4.5: Change EXIF timestamp, file dates and other attributes.
Size of Finder Selection 1.0: Size of Finder Selection is another script from Apple that will display the combined total size of selected items in the Finder.
