-@defun string-numerical-lessp strin1 string2
-This function behaves like @code{string-lessp} for stretches of
-consecutive non-numerical characters, but compares sequences of
-numerical characters as if they comprised a base-ten number, and then
-compares the numbers.  So @samp{foo2.png} is ``smaller'' than

-If one string has a number in a position in the string, and the other
-doesn't, then lexicograpic comparison is done at that point, so
-@samp{foo.png} is ``smaller'' than @samp{foo2.png}.  If any of the
-numbers in the strings are larger than can be represented as an
-integer number, the entire string is compared using
-@code{string-less}.
