I’ve been digging and digging and can’t find a way to do this. I’m using  
the Gtk::FIleCHooserDialog, but I would like a way to give it a  
different sort method for the files it displays. I did this once before  
with Gtk::FileSelection, using  
fileSelector.file\_list.model\_set\_sort\_func()

But as this is a new app, I’d like to use the new FileChooserDialog. Is  
there a way to give it my own sort function.

Thanks
