I have seen something like this with a On-Rev procedure...

I have a folder with numbered images (1.jpg 2.jpg and so on)
Sorting adds an empty line:

==CODE==

function listThumbs
        put "ls Thumbnails" into tCmd
        put shell(tCmd) into tPhotoList
        sort numeric tPhotoList
        delete line 1 of tPhotoList -- sorting adds an empty line!?
        return tPhotoList
end listThumbs

======

Wonder if the on-line version of Rev is a sister of the desktop version
;-)
