No, the epochs are ordered chronologically by default. You should not 
have to re-order them. You may use the function pop_editeventvals() from 
the command line and the sort option to re-order events (though this 
will not re-order the epochs).

    When you have an itch, you scratch. But not to itch at all is better
    than any amount of scratching.
