About Line Sorting & Deduplication

This tool sorts lines of text and optionally removes duplicates, blank lines, and extra whitespace. It is useful for cleaning up word lists, log files, CSV columns, configuration entries, or any line-separated data. All processing is instant and runs entirely in your browser.

Random shuffle is handy for randomising quiz answers, playlist orders, or test data. Numeric sort correctly orders numbers (e.g., 2 before 10) unlike a plain alphabetical sort.
