What sort modes are available?

A→Z (alphabetical), Z→A (reverse), Shortest first, Longest first, Natural (numbers sorted numerically), Reverse (flip order without sorting), and Shuffle (random order).

How does deduplication work?

When enabled, only the first occurrence of each line is kept. Comparison is case-sensitive and exact — 'Hello' and 'hello' are treated as different lines.

What do prefix and suffix do?

They add text before and after each line in the output. For example, prefix '- ' and no suffix converts lines into a Markdown list.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. All processing happens in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
