Is it possible to sort the Compile Sources list in the Build Phases section of an Xcode project?

Question

I want to sort the files in the \'Compile Sources\' section of my Xcode project according to their names. Is it possible?

Answer 1

This is thoroughly answered, but I thought I'd share the Emacs command that sorted these in place for me. Navigate to project.pbxproj, mark all files under PBXSourcesBuildPhase, and use the command:

M-3 M-x sort-fields

...aka sorting the marked area by the 3rd column, which happens to be the filenames. C-x C-s and you're on your way.
