And if there's not, how should I try to make one?

In-game? On J2O? In JCS' "Open" dialog window?

Currently, I don't know one. Study the .j2l file format. More specifically, the data1.

It might be kind of slow... there's a reason .j2l files store the level name in the header, and that's so Home Cooked Levels doesn't have to decompress the first data stream of every level in order to list its name. Tileset filenames are not however stored in the header.

Sounds like a fun hack to try and get the HCL to sort the levels by tileset, but it really depends what kind of implementation you want. It shouldn't be too difficult to create a program (in just about any language) to simply sort all levels as you want.

Not that horribly. I did it with a php script for some stuff on Steel Duels, definitely ran in under a second

Is there a method to sorting level files by tile set or music? And if there's not, how should I try to make one? __________________
