Frequently Asked Questions
What is a text utilities tool?
A text utilities tool applies common text-processing operations to a block of text — sorting lines alphabetically, removing duplicates, filtering by keyword, stripping blank lines, adding line numbers, reversing lines, and trimming whitespace. It replaces one-off scripts for everyday text manipulation tasks.
How do I count words and characters in text?
Paste your text and the word count, character count (with and without spaces), line count, and sentence count update instantly. Word count uses whitespace-splitting, so hyphenated words count as one word. For publishing targets (blog posts, academic papers), use the character count with spaces for submission systems that measure by character.
What is the difference between character count with and without spaces?
Character count with spaces counts every character including spaces, newlines, and tabs — this is the raw byte-level count for ASCII text. Without spaces counts only visible characters. Academic word-count limits (e.g. "5000 characters") typically mean without spaces. SMS limits (160 chars) count with spaces and all characters.
How do I sort lines of text alphabetically?
Paste your list of lines and click Sort A→Z. The sort is case-insensitive by default (A and a sort together). Choose reverse sort for Z→A. For natural sort (file_10.txt after file_9.txt rather than before), use a dedicated natural-sort tool or script: in Python, from natsort import natsorted.
How do I remove duplicate lines from a text file?
Paste the text and click Remove Duplicates. Each unique line appears once in the output; all subsequent duplicates are removed. Lines are compared exactly (case-sensitive, whitespace included). If you need case-insensitive deduplication, convert all lines to lowercase first, then deduplicate.
About Reverse Text Lines
A collection of essential line-processing operations for developers and data workers. Sort lines alphabetically or by length, remove duplicate lines, strip empty lines, filter or keep lines matching a pattern or regex, shuffle randomly, add line numbers, trim whitespace, and word-wrap long lines. All processing runs in your browser — nothing is sent to a server.
