Well, I can't really hope to play "One-upmanship" with Kevin, nor
could I ever attempt to come up with something as concise as he did.
However, I can offer you this. Perl has a lot of sorting,
and file-finding modules built into it. That, combined with hashes,
could enable you to write some pretty good file sorting code which is
actually readable :)

It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
