This script adds files (audio files) to iTunes in the STOCK FOLDER in an ascending order (with Date Added with up arrow selected) so track 1 will be at the top and the greater numbers below it as per usual. One can have normal numbering or leading zero numbers from 1 to 9 (01, 02, etc.).
The script stops if there are no files in the STOCK FOLDER.
There is spoken text confirmation and iTunes is paused once all the files are processed.
I usually place this applescript in the Scripts main menu item at the top right.
Enjoy!
