And in the same vein, what about custom scripts?  E.g., if you have:


CLASS1/80-ssh
CLASS2/80-ssh


... are they run in lexical order (e.g., CLASS1's 80-ssh gets run 
first), or ...?  Obviously, you can't concatenate these, as the 
interpreter could differ from script to script.

TIA for the clarification.
