I've seen a couple of suggestions on this, now I have one of my own: how 
about using the LDFLIST macro that is supplied with the editor.  All you 
would do with this is create an alphabetized list of the files that you 
want to load, then exec the editor with the macro.  For example:
To create the list:
dir > file.lst
Edit the list to remove unwanted files, and extra info, then sort the list. 
 Save the file and exit.
Next execute the editor:
e32 file.lst -eldflist
That's my two cents.
