[Bug 1307235] [NEW] needs a way to organize by directory / asciibetical

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have a nice tablet which runs Ubuntu Touch.  I'd like to use it for
tablet-y things, like reading manga and comics.  There's a nice gallery
app to display pictures.  So far, so good.  But it has no function to
browse by directory or sort by directory or filename or full path, or
anything which would facilitate looking at a long sequence of well-named
files in their asciibetical order.

An "events"-like view, listing directories and their contents, would be
nice.  However, I'd be happy to simply be able to sort files in the
correct order, like what I'd get with 'find /home/phablet/Pictures -type
f | sort'.  Maybe a reverse sort instead, to put 'z' before 'a', since
that would also mean newer dates and higher numbers (more recent images)
would show first.  This would also sort a camera card dump in most-
recent-first order, such as the "DCIM" folder on a Canon camera.

I'm hoping to be able to view an ordered directory tree with files names such as:
/home/phablet/Pictures/comics/Batman/v01/ch01/p14.jpg

Being able to actually see the filenames/path would help too, to get an
idea what page/chapter/etc I'm viewing.
