readdir ifs command

        I wrote a program, to read an IFS directory to process incoming
files, however there are times, where more that one file may be present at
one time, so I used the readdir command to process each transaction/file.

        However, I now need to process each file in its arrival sequence, I
was wondering, if anybody knows the precedence in which the readdir command
process each file... If not, I will need to read the directory once, to grab
the filenames, and the timestamp... and then re-read the files using that
order...  But then the question comes, what variable holds the best
timestamp value...for a stream file...

        Thanks, Tim
