I see in $VIMRUNTIME/doc/tags that the tags are indeed sorted. In
that case, why does :help !<C-D> produce this horrific mess?
:help !
:! /\@! :edit! expr-!~# win16-!start
:!! :no! :enew! expr-!~? win32-!start
:#! /\@<! :mapc! :edit!_f :noremap!
:_! :ene! :read! :map_l! viminfo-!
:r! :map! expr-! :range! :mapclear!
:w! :unm! expr-!= :retab!
v_! cpo-! expr-!~ :unmap!
:!cmd tag-! expr-!=# :args_f!
:!start :set-! expr-!=? :buffer-!
In this and other cases of :help <something><C-D>, you pretty much
have to read every item because there is no apparent order to the
list.
(Yes, the exclamation points appear farther to the right in later
entries, but that is not useful and is not even true in general, as
":buffer-!" precedes "win16-!start".)
I generated this from Vim 7.4.9 started as
vim -N -u NONE
on Linux.
