Frequently Asked Questions

What sorting options are available?
You can sort alphabetically (A-Z or Z-A), by line length (shortest or longest first), randomly shuffle, or reverse the order.
Does it handle numbers correctly?
Sorting is alphabetical (locale-based), so numbers sort as strings. For pure numeric sorting, the lines should contain only numbers.
Can I sort large text files?
Yes. The tool handles thousands of lines efficiently since all processing happens in your browser.
