+shsort
+======
+
+a recursive quicksort in pure posix shell script using any arbitrary function
+or command capable of parsing a comparison expression and outputing "yes" or
+"no."  (e.g., anything that takes a string in the form of "1 > 3" as a command
+line argument and echoes "no" and takes "1 < 3" and echoes "yes".)
+
+34 SLOC.
+
+usage: shsort [-r] <comparator command> [<list>]
+
+shsort expects a newline delimited list of elements to sort.  the list may be
+passed via stdin in or on the command line as the <list> argument.
+
+the comparator command is used as-is and may be a string including flags.
+
+for example:
+
+    $ printf "2.9\n1.2\n3.4\n2.1\n2.1-rc0\n2.12" | shsort "vercmp -f default"
+    3.4
+    2.12
+    2.9
+    2.1
+    2.1-rc0
+    1.2
+
+`-r` reverses the sort order:
+
+    $ printf "2.9\n1.2\n3.4\n2.1\n2.1-rc0\n2.12" | shsort -r "vercmp -f default"
+    1.2
+    2.1-rc0
+    2.1
+    2.9
+    2.12
+    3.4
