mp3 Directory Sort?

Is there a way to use exiftool to physically sort a directory of
mp3 files into track number order?  The files are currently in
filename alpha order (ls -U) and I can run exiftool on individual
files and see the track number.

If you just want a listing of the songs in order of track, you
could do something like this in Unix:

Code:

exiftool -p '$track $filename' | sort -n

Oops, forgot to specify a directory:

Code:

exiftool -p '$track $filename' DIR | sort -n
