Icecast - Aug 2004 - static playlist display order

Dear List,

I checked in archives (does the search work?  All my queries return no founds, 
then I tried just loading the whole thing and using a browser search)

Anyway -- static playlist order.  What determines what order the files 
displayed by the http://www.server.com:8000/file/  ?

I sorted my playlist alphabetically and started icecast and ices, but the
playlist is still displaying statically in a fairly random order -- which
is the same order I get if I run an unsorted find playlist, oddly enough.

Ok, so hypothetically lets say I wanted http://www.server.com:8000/file/ to
print contents in alphabetical order.  What would I need to do to the files
themselves -- touch them such that the newest touch was the file I wanted to
display first?  Last?  I guess what I am asking for here is a 101 on how the
opendir() call works, or at least how to massage my data to get the results I
want (an alphabetical display of my files). Either that or I'd be changing 
dir.c, which is beyond my abilities at this time.

man 3 opendir didn't give much detail, and I'm scurrying around looking
for a hint in man pages on things like find, any help welcome... thanks!

I'd have to look at the code.  My guess is whatever order it comes up on
a call to opendir().

It will probably seem random.
