Overview

Package verstr supports comparing and sorting of version strings.

Version strings contain substrings of numbers which should be sorted numerically rather than lexographically. For example, "file.9.ext" and "file.10.ext" sort lexographically such that "file.10.ext" comes first which is generally not the desired result. When treated as version strings, "file.9.ext" should come first.
