Sorted Files

This simple extension is based on vscode tree-view-sample to display only files of a folder in a tree view. By default the files are sorted by modified time so it's convenient to know the recently modified files in the specified folder. E.g. if you use vscode to manage your markdown files in a folder you may want to know which files are recently modified in that folder. The similar idea also applies to other file types.
