Setting the sort list function to sort in descending order outputs a list sorted starting with the letter "y" and ending in the letter "a".
add list to list(%my list, $list from text("q,w,e,r,t,y,u,i,o,p,a,c,v,b,n", ","), "Delete", "Global") type text(<about me textarea>, $sort list(%my list, "Ascending"), "Standard")
