It looks to me like you are relying on the files to be already sorted
in the result from this line:
fn =. {. |: 1!:0 jpath dir,pfx,'*',sfx
If you want them sorted numerically, wouldn't we want to sort them?
Here's some example "unsorted" data:
pfx=: 'page '
sfx=: '.png'
fns =: |. pfx,L:0 (":&.> 1+i.18),L:0 sfx
And here's an example of how we might sort them in numerical order:
norm=: 0 ". (#pfx) }. (-#sfx) }. ]
(/: norm L:0) fns
Note that this particular sort implementation will group any
"non-numeric" files at the 0 position.
Thanks,
