Maybe we want to wait some more time before we use the patch below to
find out if we get a reply to the message I send (asking if it's ok to 
change this). I just had some free time...

Anyway, I'd really like to clean this up, so the patch

- changes what was the `o' qualifier to `f' (= file-modes?); I haven't 
  found a better character, but it's easy to change; other free
  characters are: behijknqvyzBCFHJKPQVYZ
- changes the `O' qualifier to `o' and introduces a new qualifier `O'
  that behaves like `^o' (sorts in descending order); and yes, `(^oc)' 
  is the same as `(Oc)'; the uses in the zls example function have
  been changed, are there any more uses?
