I assume that you're referring to specifying a particular key column
to sort by?  That doesn't do what I need.  Rather, I need to rejigger
the actual columns (not sort by a particular column).  So, if my
columns are currently:

foo bar baz
0   1   2

after sorting (alphabetically) they should be:

bar baz foo
1   2   0
