   4 the inline plugin's sorting is plain lexical, thich may not be appropriate for
   5 page titles if they have numeric components. the
   6 [Sort::Naturally](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Sort-Naturally/) perl module
   7 provides an algorithm for that.
   8
   9 there is a
  10 [patch](http://git.ikiwiki.info/?p=ikiwiki;a=commit;h=55b83cb7bd1cd7c60bb45dc22c3745dd80a63fed)
  11 attached that makes the [[plugins/inline]] plugin use Sort::Naturally if sort
  12 is set to "title_natural".
  13
  14 the current patch uses `require Sort::Naturally`, so
  15 [libsort-naturally-perl](http://packages.debian.org/libsort-naturally-perl)
  16 does not become a dependency; it might be worth suggesting, though.
