As I said before there is a solution to this which absolutely doesn't care about the lenght/size of numeric values. All that's required is a careful reading of the rules (they contain a hint to the solution) and some creative thinking as to how one can represent numeric values in such a fashion that they can be sorted properly.
I don't have access to FTP right now (I'm at my in-laws on my company computer and FTP password is on my home computer) but I'll see whether I can attach a new .INI file with a large number test. Might take me a while though to get there, sneaking in minutes here and there to check on the KiXgolf progress.
