This package provides a Go implementation of the venerable C function versionsort(3). This lets you sort strings containing natural numbers, such as versions. It understands that 1.12 is greater than 1.6, for example.

Example of usage:

	input := []string{"1.12", "1.24", "1.1", "1.6"}
	versionsort.Strings(input)
	fmt.Println(input)
	// Output: [1.1 1.6 1.12 1.24]
