How to re-sort *Buffer List* chronologically?

How to re-sort *Buffer List* chronologically?

[kj]

When first invoked, *Buffer List* appears to list buffers in reverse
chronological order according to the last time that the buffer was
viewed (i.e. the mosts recently viewed buffers appear toward the
top of the list).

Is there a way to reverse this order, so that the buffers that were
viewed most recently appear at the bottom?

TIA!

and the last period, and everything after it, should be discarded.

I don't know, but if you use `ibuffer' it's a matter of typing 's i'.

You can sort on any column and reverse the sort order of any column. Column Time
gives you last access time (last time the buffer was displayed). Column CRM
gives you first access time (first time the buffer was visited).
