The command show-font-tabulated will produce a listing of font families and their preview that uses the built-in tabulated interface. Users can sort fonts by font family name (move point to the given column and type S or call M-x tabulated-list-sort ). The command show-font-list which we already had in version 0.1.0 is like the show-font-tabulated , but uses a bespoke buffer where each font and its preview are shown one after the other.
