Well, the way they're sorted, they don't really sort numerically. No sort command I can think of is going to grok floating point numbers in exponential notation.
So the usual trick is to rename them into something that will sort.
Are there any positive exponents or only negative ones? Any negative numbers or only positive ones? What do they look like?

I have various ".mp3" files, like "band name - music name.mp3" and I want to remove the "band name" from all files.
Anybody knows how to do it using shell script or sed or even perl?

NOTES
