As part of another project, I spent some time updating TableSorter.java so
that it compiles cleanly under Java 1.5. The file can be retrieved from:

http://ouroborus.org/java/

I would appreciate any constructive comments regarding the results.

Well, if you really want to make my day, you could add the ability to sort
on multiple columns.

I'm thinking of something analagous to the ORDER BY clause of the SQL SELECT
statement, which lets you say something like:

ORDER BY CITY ASC, LASTNAME DESC

If you could make the sort work on any number of columns, that would be
brilliant but even if you could only do up to 4 columns, it would be
wonderful.

I've always had this in the back of mind to do myself someday but never
quite get around to it. But, if you could figure out how to do it, I think
it would be very useful.
