What character can I put at the beginning of a filename so that it will go to the end of an alphabetically sorted finder window?
I know that on Mac OS 9 you could use the bullet character for this, but apparently not on OS X.
Thanks.

Thanks, dtriska. Too bad that omega character is even more distracting than a "z".

a bullet (opt-8) used to do it in OS 9...I'm not on an OS X computer at the moment, though, so I can't check.

"You rise," he said, "like Aurora."

But you asked what character, and it certainly works. Can you find another one? I didn't know that would work. :-D
The bullet - option 8 - does not work in OS X, as it did in OS 9 as that is exactly the character I used and it wasn't too distracting.
