Unsorting the Group list

When adding groups to the group list they are inserted in an alphabetical order.
In a previous version you could change that order by editing the .nbi file, but that does not work in V6.
Is there a way to 'unsort' the group list so that the groups can be ordered to my fashion?
If not, could this functionality be included in a next version? Thanks.

Yes, I believe that ability is not currently there, but is on the list for a future release.

I too, would like to ability to at least manually re-sort my groups. There's ones that are important(ish) at the top of my v5 list, and not-so-important lower down, as well as 'groups' of groups that are similar but might have different prefixes.. They're not so similar necessarily that I want to make a group inside newsbin for them, but it would be nice to be able to move them around where I want them.. ala 5.x. :)

Does that not piss you off as a programmer? "<whine> <whine> I liked the way the 16 bit version did it 15 years ago, that I've been using until my 386sx crashed last week - make it more like that!" "can we go back to doing it the OOOLLD way? I'm scared of change and i hate new things! I'm a paying customer and you better listen to me!"

Change is bad, I know that....

I know people want group order stuff, I'll get right on it. I don't typically load groups, I load entire topics into the post list.
