I've wanted to view my CSS in a text reader with the styles in alphabetical order, but I can't think of a way to get them in alphabetical order (except by manually moving things around or other ways that are even more time-consuming). Am I missing anything? Is there an easy way to do this?

I don't think you want to move the order around since the styles are applied in the order they are listed. You can sort the Simplified View of the stylesheet by clicking any of the column headers.

There is an online tool that will do this with some minor limitations.

Sorting CSS Styles.png

Copy/paste your CSS text into the window. Disable all compression options as shown.

Restrictions:
i. The tool will not handle comments while sorting selectors so if you have a lot of comments throughout your CSS don't use it. (If you just have comments at the start you can easily ignore these when copying into the tool and paste back preserving them.)
ii. The copied text can only be from one media section. If you have a print media section then you should copy/paste the text from the default section and then repeat for the text from the print section.

Worked fine when I tried it, but I suggest you back up your CSS beforehand.
