gap = 10 * gap \ 13
If gap < 1 Then gap = 1
i = 0
swapped = 0
Do
If Fonts(i).Name > Fonts(i + gap).Name Then
Swap Fonts(i).Name, Fonts(i + gap).Name
Swap Fonts(i).FileName, Fonts(i + gap).FileName

End Sub

I'm thinking the above version should work with either command prompt or terminal, with zero issues. Give it a try if you have a chance, and if it works as advertised this time, I'll go in and correct the original post and clean up the other versions from there to here, just to keep it from being confusing for others and hard to understand.

I honestly think, this whole time, the issue was nothing more than shelling out to CMD vs shelling out to Terminal, and the way they try and process the input. Tongue
