Using the 'strings' command and piping the result to 'sort' is producing strange results. I get block of lines that begin with asterisks, then a block that begins with some text, then more lines that begin with asterisks. The actual content is correct - lines beginning with asterisks is the actual content of the file. My question is about the resulting sort order. Within a grouping things are in order, but I don't understand why the lines beginning with an asterisk are broken into two groups, separated by a group of lines that begin with an alphabetic character.

Hi,

The script should find all .cpp and .h files and list them.
