Script Help

There is a Perl script I got from our vendor that is used to install
patches. Rather cool and much more automated than previously, however there
is still quite a few manual steps I would like to automate. So I a writting
a CL program to automate this a bit more.

1. Is there a way in CL to get the first filename (alpha sorted) in a
directory?
2. What is the easiest way to get a list of
  a. Source Physical Files
  b. Source Members
I need this to "archive" the origonal source before the patch is installed.
(Just incase there is a problem)

I know I can do this in RPG with API's but I am wondering if this can all be
done in CL.
