Organizing actions alphabetically

Thank thought you could do with scripts.

I wonder if it is possible that the window does not close after he did his job, and can stay open to start other actions?

I am looking for a way to organize the actions in the action pallet. Listing them alphabetically in the action pallet would be big help. Alternatively saving a work space with a particular action set would also work. However, I have not been able to save a works space with just one specific action set.

It would be super useful if Photoshop could allow to save fully customizable work spaces including actions sets and the interface colors. 

Do you want the script to reorder actions in a set in the actions palette or do you want to create a dialog that you can select a loaded action set and get the actions in it in a sorted list. I think the dialog would be possible by sorting the arrays of retrieve loaded actions set names and sorting retrieved actions names.  There was a package available at one time for organizing ones Action palette.  It most like used Action manager code to delete loaded action sets and to load action sets.  I never downloaded it.  I did download a script that put up a dialog that let you select a loaded action an run it.  The script name RunAction.jsx here it is:

#target photoshop
app.bringToFront();
function main(){
var dlg=
"dialog{text:'Action Selector',bounds:[100,100,510,240],"+
"panel0:Panel{bounds:[10,10,400,130] , text:'' ,properties:{borderStyle:'etched',su1PanelCoordinates:true},"+
"statictext0:StaticText{bounds:[30,10,280,30] , text:'Run Action' ,properties:{scrolling:undefined,multiline:undefined}},"+
"ActionSet:DropDownList{bounds:[10,40,190,60]},"+
"ActionName:DropDownList{bounds:[200,40,380,60]},"+
"button0:Button{bounds:[20,80,120,100] , text:'Ok' },"+
"button1:Button{bounds:[240,80,340,100] , text:'Cancel' }}}";
win = new Window(dlg);
win.center();


var actionSets = new Array();
actionSets = getActionSets();
for (var i=0,len=actionSets.length;i<len;i++) {
  item = win.panel0.ActionSet.add ('item', "" + actionSets);     

};
win.panel0.ActionSet.selection=0;


var actions = new Array();
