Well, there is the <script> task which can help you make this happen. It's
an optional Ant task, and you need to include in a few additional jarfiles
when you run Ant. <
http://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html#librarydependencies>. The Script
macro can be found here: <
http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/script.html>.

I've never used the script macro, so I can't help you there, but you are
taking on a rather complex task.

You need to collect the file names, create a "sortkey" for each file name,
sort the files on that key, and then recall these names one-by-one. There is
no "numeric sort" command I know of in most languages, so you'll have to do
that yourself. You'll need to do that in an "approved" language which may
not be a language you are familiar with.

If you are a decent Java developer, you could try writing a custom Ant task.
Information about that can be found in the Ant Manual here: <
http://ant.apache.org/manual/tutorial-writing-tasks.html>.

Lots of luck with your endeavor.
