Ordening without "the", "a", "an" and Numbers

[mpsampsa]

Is it possible Ordering
- without ("the", "a" or "an") and
- without (similar beginnings) and
- without (Numbers in the beginning) in the Name column ?
Thanks.

Not sure what you mean by "similar beginnings", but this should do all the rest:

Code: Select all

!ww:the  !ww:a  !ww:an  regex:^[^\d]

Thanks for the answer before.

Another Question or rethinking the previous request in a different way:
Is it possible Everything ordering ("the", "a", "an" and Numbers being in the list, but not counting for the alphabetical ordering)
Example, I have this list results ordered normally (1º letter without exception):
- "42 Letters...."
- "An Bulk ..."
- "L'Equipe de France ..."
- "The Air ..."

Put the same list results in this order type ("the", "a", "an" and Numbers being in the list, but not counting for the alphabetical ordering):
- "The Air ..."
- "An Bulk ..."
- L'Equipe de France ..."
- "42 Letters...."

Is there any way to do this type of ordering files results in Everything?

Many Thanks

I don't that has been considered.

But there are thoughts out there to ignore "noise" characters & or an "ignore" list.
(This would also not affect sort, only search.)

I personally use bulk renaming to remove / relocate these "noise words" in files and folders. ie, The Quick Fox becomes Quick Fox, The. Voidtools Everything has bulk renaming, as well, I also use a program called RegexRenamer quite a lot.

This might not be the solution you wanted, but could be the solution you need.
