file sorting
afaik there are two common ways to read files from a directory

1. file "directory\*.bla"

2. using DirRequest and a loop to read every single file from that

i was wondering in what order (name, date etc.) this works and if there is a way to manipulate this (feature in future builds). in some cases it could be helpful to force NSIS to read files in alphabetical order.

NSIS just uses Windows API calls and thus this is up to Windows. I don't see a reason why NSIS should sort this list of files... Why would you want that?
