All I have now is a way of sorting files IF the folder contains only one name pattern.
Sure I can provide user input to guide the sorting process, but I'd prefer not to do it.
Why sorting using two keys isn't a good idea?
Getting the first character and use it to sort means I can sort files with a two steps process.
(this means file names differs from the first character: 03_XXX, 10_XXX, a_XXX... But, as 99,5% of files I need to sort are like that, this could work...)

locale5.18
locale(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide locale(3pm)
NAME
locale - Perl pragma to use or avoid POSIX locales for built-in operations
SYNOPSIS
@x = sort @y; # Unicode sorting order
{
use locale;
@x = sort @y; # Locale-defined sorting order
}
@x = sort @y; # Unicode sorting order again
DESCRIPTION
This pragma tells the compiler to enable (or disable) the use of POSIX locales for built-in operations (for example, LC_CTYPE for regular
expressions, LC_COLLATE for string comparison, and LC_NUMERIC for number formatting). Each "use locale" or "no locale" affects statements
to the end of the enclosing BLOCK.
Starting in Perl 5.16, a hybrid mode for this pragma is available,
use locale ':not_characters';
which enables only the portions of locales that don't affect the character set (that is, all except LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE). This is
useful when mixing Unicode and locales, including UTF-8 locales.
use locale ':not_characters';
use open ":locale"; # Convert I/O to/from Unicode
use POSIX qw(locale_h); # Import the LC_ALL constant
setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); # Required for the next statement
# to take effect
printf "%.2f
", 12345.67' # Locale-defined formatting
@x = sort @y; # Unicode-defined sorting order.
# (Note that you will get better
# results using Unicode::Collate.)
See perllocale for more detailed information on how Perl supports locales.
NOTE
If your system does not support locales, then loading this module will cause the program to die with a message:
"Your vendor does not support locales, you cannot use the locale
module."
