Control the Finder?s File-Name Sort Order
Before OS X, the tricks for controlling the Finder?s file-name sort order were pretty simple. For instance, if you added a tilde (~) to the beginning of a file name, that file would move to the bottom of list-view Finder windows. Adding a space or an underscore would move the file to the top of a list.

In OS X, the rules have changed. The characters that moved files to the bottom of a list in OS 9 now move files to the top of a list. What can you do if you want a certain file or group of files to appear at the bottom of a list-view window? If you?re using OS X 10.3, you could use the Labels feature to assign a color label to each file, and then sort by label. But there?s another way to go: you can use one of three Greek letters?mu (option-M), pi (option-P), or omega (option-Z)?or the Apple-logo character (shift-option-K) to force that file to the end of the list.


Hope that clears it up for ya.
