Here, have mine:

void do_commands(CHAR_DATA *ch,char *argument) {
    char *Commands[512];                // at most 512 commands
    char buf[MAX_INPUT_LENGTH];
    static BUFFER *buffer=NULL;
    int cmd;
    int top = 0;
    int i, j;

    if (!buffer) {
        logf("[0] Sorting commands-table");
        buffer = new_buf();
        add_buf(buffer,"{cCommand List:{W\n\r");

        for ( cmd = 0; cmd_table[cmd].name!=NULL; cmd++ )
            if (cmd_table[cmd].vnum==0
            &&  cmd_table[cmd].show
            &&  cmd_table[cmd].disabled==FALSE) {
                for ( i = 0; i < top; i++ )
                    if ( strcmp( Commands[i], cmd_table[cmd].name ) > 0 )
                        break;
                for ( j = top; j > i; j-- )
                    Commands[j] = Commands[j-1];
                Commands[i] = cmd_table[cmd].name;
                top++;
                if (top==512) {
                    bugf("More than 512 commands, please fix do_commands()");
                    break;
                }
            }

        for ( i = 0; i < top; i++ ) {
            sprintf( buf, "{W%-19s", Commands[i]);
            add_buf(buffer, buf);
            if ( ( i + 1 )%4 == 0 ) {
                sprintf( buf, "{x\n\r" );
                add_buf(buffer, buf);
            }
        }
        add_buf(buffer,"\r\n{x");
    }
         
    page_to_char( buf_string(buffer), ch );
/*  free_buf(buffer);   this buffer is never freed, sorry */
}
