I seem to recall a new V9 DATA Step function or call routine that would sort an array or list of variables. { SCL has ASORT }

Something like: call qsort (of x[*]);

Is such a beastie already existing, or am I remembering the future ?

If birdies are listening, call qsort (array,options,lbound,hbound) would be real nice for 1d arrays.
