   I've been adding this line to
   /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/gnump3d/plugins/prefs.pm at about line 196. It's a
   more thorough sort when the tracks reach the player:

   $OPTIONS{'$ARTIST $ALBUM $TRACK'} = "By Artist, Album, Track";
    

  Thanks for that, I've added it now.

  Somebody recently suggested changing the options so there are
 two boxes:

	[Sort term one]   [Sort term two]

  This would allow you to make more complex selections, I think it's
 mostly a good idea, but I've not gotten round to doing it yet.
  

I thought about two sorts as well but in a different way:

1. The way tracks are sorted on the screen
2. The way tracks are sorted in the mp3 player

The sort on the  preferences page seem to control only the sorting for the tracks when they end up at the player. I can't figure out how to make the tracks sort on screen.

e.g.:

	01/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - What Mama Said [ Rock - 03:23 / 3.8Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	08/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Hip-Notica [ Rock - 04:40 / 5.3Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	06/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Angel (Footsteps) [ Rock - 06:31 / 7.4Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	09/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Even Odds [ Rock - 03:29 / 3.9Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	02/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Psycho Sam [ Rock - 04:55 / 5.6Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	05/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Space For The Papa [ Rock - 07:41 / 8.8Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	04/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Blast From The East [ Rock - 04:46 / 5.4Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	03/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Brush With The Blues [ Rock - 06:25 / 7.3Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	07/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - THX 138 [ Rock - 06:15 / 7.1Mb ]	[Info] [Download]
	10/11 - Jeff Beck - Who Else! - Declan [ Rock - 04:02 / 4.6Mb ]	[Info] [Download]

I hope this html doesn't screw up the mailing list. :-)

   Also, plugin_random_exclude needs to be added to gnump3d.conf.
    

  Also committed, along with additions for all the plugin-specific
 options.  (Like plugin_random_song_count for example).
