Guillaume Nodet commented on KARAF-5881:
----------------------------------------

It seems to work for me, could you be more explicit ?

Running the following:
{code}
echo "a3|b3|c3|d3|e3|f3|g3|h3
a1|b1|c1|d1|e1|f1|g1|h1
a0|b0|c0|d0|e0|f0|g0|h0
a2|b2|c2|d2|e2|f2|g2|h2
" | sort -b --field-separator='|' --key=7
{code}
gives
{code}
a0|b0|c0|d0|e0|f0|g0|h0
a1|b1|c1|d1|e1|f1|g1|h1
a2|b2|c2|d2|e2|f2|g2|h2
a3|b3|c3|d3|e3|f3|g3|h3
{code}

> I have a list with multiple fields separated by pipe ("|"). I want to sort by 7th field but sort does not what it should. If i write the output into a file and sort it in linux's bash it sorts correctly.
> So it seems to be a bug in shell:sort.
> I also tried sorting by other fields, which also doesn't work correctly.
