Enfuse Advanced

Description

An improved version of Darktable’s original enfuseAdvanced script.

Problem: Darktable's image_table does not sort input file names, causing align_image_stack to receive them in the wrong order.

Solution:
The script now sorts the extracted file names before running the stacking command.

Key Change

for image in images_to_align:gmatch("%S+") do
    table.insert(image_list, image)
end
table.sort(image_list)
images_to_align = table.concat(image_list, " ")
