[comp.sys.mac.system] What controls order of startup items?

I just got the extension called "~FinderToFront" and put it in my
startup items folder.  It appears last when the folder is viewed by name
but on startup it runs first!  According to the readme that accompanied
this extension all you have to do is name it so that it runs last --
well I've tried nameing it so it appeared first, last and in the middle
all to no avail.  Everything else in my startup folder is an alias so I
tried making an alias of it and putting that in.  That changed the
startup order, but it still didn't start up last.  What the heck is
going on!!!

I've got a Mac IIci running the real system 7.0.
