Default How can I sort FX presets alphabetically?

As in the subject.

I exported them as a file, and it seems to be some sort of XML file, but I don't immediately get any ideas on how to sort them without spending two hours writing a PHP script to do it.

Yeah, I don't think there's a way to do that and keep everything structured properly.

I use a spreadsheet to work on the presets but that's still a manual situation.

Well, if you mean .RPL files, then it is possible to write a script which generate new file with presets sorted alphabetically.
If .FXB meant, then it is out of my league.

If you'd find the time to create such a tool there will be loads of users using it regularly I suppose :-)
