Ruby: Directory sort string embedded number

It pay my pain for simple sort  this is my solution:

files = Dir.entries(dirpath).sort_by { |page| page =~ /(\d+).(png|jpg)$/ ; [$1.to_i, $2.to_i] } files_ino = Dir.entries(dirpath).sort_by { |a| File.stat("#{dirpath}/#{a}").ino }

First: use regular expression then what ever you would like to manage (In my case is 'text_1.png')

Second: use File.stat(file).ino, it return inode number for stat
