emacs electric-buffer questions

Hi. I'm using Emacs 26.1 and the ebuff-menu that comes with it.

I couldn't find any documentation describing how the electric-buffer is sorted initially. I clicked on a few of the headings. The buffer sorted accordingly. I prefer the original, which I think was some form of most-recently-used.

Hovering over a column heading doesn't tell what the column is, so I can only guess what C,R, and M are.

Also, is there a way to adjust the column widths?

Thanks,
Steve Kelem

See the description of 'buffer-list' in the ELisp manual and of
list-buffers in the Emacs User manual.

See the documentation of 'list-buffers' in the user manual.

There are user options in buff-menu.el to do that, I believe that
ebuff-menu.el honors them.
