Hi,
I read of a vimtip, that one can move/copy lines of a text which
match a cvertina pattern to line 0 (top) of the text.
This is a nice trick to gather material for a kinda quick'n'dirty
"Table of contents" it has one drwaback: The copied lines are in
reversed order.
Surely it is possible to write a fairly simple function with a
counter, which keeps track to what line something is copied.
But it would be interesting whether it is possible to achieve this
with more "condensed" tricks without writing a function in
beforehand.
Thank you very much for any idea/hack/trick in advance!
Keep hacking!

You could use the reverse lines trick to reorder the copied lines. Use
the following to put the lines at the top of the file:
:let cnt=0|g/(regexp)/copy 0|let cnt=cnt+1
Then re-reverse the copied lines at the top of the file:
:exe "1,".cnt."g/^/m0"
Easy enough to put that into a function passing the 'regexp' to it...
