Desired Outcome Goal:
How can we set the default sort for the Brief List in GUI?


Procedure:
The default sort for the GUI Brief List is set in $alephe_root/pc_server_defaults by parameter "setenv pc_sort_field'´and is related to the sort fields assigned in ./xxx01/tab/tab_sort.

Example:

$alephe_root/pc_server_defaults
setenv pc_sort_field "02 A01 D"

./xxx01/tab/tab_sort
!1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 12 13 4 15 16 7 18 9
!!-!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!-!!-!!
01 95 008 260## c 08 04
02 01 1#### a 700## a 00 00
03 11 245## a 2 240## 2 00 00
04 22 050## LOC## hjl 084## a 00 00
05 11 440## av 2 00 00
06 TYP## FMT## 00 00
07 01 BND 245## a 2 00 00


Sorting in this case is done by "Author, ascending", then "Year, descending".
