Option to list duplicate results by something other than file size #103

It would be nice to have the option to list the duplicate results by folder name, and then by file name. I assume other sort options could be included as well, such as creation date, etc

When the results are sorted by size, the folders and filenames are not in alphabetical order. Having them in alphabetical order will allow us to more efficiently cull our duplicates because we know we're first working with the set of video from our Amazon trip, then next our Bahamas trip, and then our Cancun trip, so on.

Yup good idea, I sorted by size such that bigger duplicates would be treated first but it should be pretty straightforward to add options.

I suppose either folder path option would work. I just thought it'd be nice to add in some display/sorting options. I'm sure there's others that people might want besides path and date.

I wanted path because when I'm going thru duplicates, it's nice to know and makes it easier on my brain to know I'm sorting thru a folder of vids that are grouped by the same name at a time before I move on to another subset.
