 A sample of this file is include in the repository as
 `voltctl_command_options.config`.
 
+### Ordering a list output through a given field
+
+By default `voltctl` does not order the oputput of a list command, e.g. `voltctl device list`.
+By providing the `-r` the output can be ordered based on a field of the proto object returned by the command.
+For devices an example sorting would by by `SerialNumber` or `Type` or `AdminState`. See an example below.
