Drupal Category Listing Module

I was feeling pretty dumb. I migrated my blog from Movable Type to Drupal back in December. One of the things I lost in the move was a category index. I couldn't find a good way to get Drupal to give me a basic listing of category terms in a given vocabulary.

Here is what I wanted:

  • List taxonomy terms in a given vocabulary
  • Displayed vocabulary hierarchies properly
  • Optionally displayed category descriptions and article counts
  • Linked the term name to taxonomy/term/(tid)
  • Displayed in a properly themed unordered list

These requirements are so basic and obvious, I thought the module that did them had to exist. I was feeling like a big dummy for not figuring out where it was—either in the Drupal core or among the large number of freely available taxonomy modules.
