cmd: Commander.Handle,

names: LIST OF Rope.ROPE,

reverseOrder: BOOL ¬ FALSE,

mode: ColumnateMode ¬ tabbed,

columnOrder: BOOL ¬ FALSE,

font: VFonts.Font ¬ NIL,

rowIndentation: Rope.ROPE ¬ NIL];

Columnate and print the names to cmd.out, optionally reversing the order of the names.

ragged produces slightly ragged columnation, but is quicker.

If not columnOrder, then columnation is row order.

If font is NIL, it is defaulted to Tioga, point size 10.
