There are also sorted pairs iterator code examples which could solve the problem maybe.

Can you not change the serialization code to sort the keys if it's dumping
a table? Something like:
function serialize(name,item)
...
if type(item) == 'table' then
local keys = {}
for name in pairs(items) do
table.insert(keys,name)
end
-- -------------------------------------------------------------
-- if all the keys are of a single type (strings, numbers) then
-- this should be okay. If the keys are of mixed types, then
-- you will probably have to define a sort function that will
-- reliably "sort" the mixed keys.
-- -------------------------------------------------------------
table.sort(keys)
for _,name in ipairs(keys) do
serialize(name,item[name])
end
end
...
end
-spc
