I just wrote a procedure that lists files in a 
backup folder then deletes the oldest. FWIW to 
you, here's the part I use to acquire their 
modification dates and sort by the date modified. 
This much will give you the name of the newer 
file at the top of your list of two.

lvFiles is a local variable listing the file names in the folder: lvFolder

ArrayFilter lvFiles, 
lvFiles,¶,str(superdate(val(array(fileinfo(lvFolder,import()),3,¶)),val(array(fileinfo(lvFolder,import()),4,¶))))+¬+import()

arraysort lvFiles, lvFiles,¶
