About this tool

Sort Lines takes a block of text and rearranges each line alphabetically or numerically, with options for ascending or descending order. It is built for developers, writers, data analysts, and anyone who regularly works with lists, CSV fields, config files, or plain text data that needs a predictable order. No spreadsheet required.

Reach for this tool when you need to alphabetize a word list, organize a set of file paths, sort numbered items cleanly, or remove the mental overhead of doing it by hand. It handles large blocks of text in seconds and keeps your original formatting intact.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type your lines of text into the input field.
  2. Choose your sort order: ascending (A to Z) or descending (Z to A).
  3. Select alphabetical or numerical mode depending on your content type.
  4. Toggle case-sensitive sorting on or off if capitalization matters.
  5. Click Sort and review the reordered output in the result field.
  6. Copy the sorted text using the Copy button and paste it where needed.

Pro tips

  • For numerical sorting, pad single-digit numbers with a leading zero to avoid lexicographic order surprises.
  • Paste data with leading spaces intentionally stripped first, or leading whitespace will affect sort position unexpectedly.

FAQ

Does it remove duplicate lines automatically?
Not by default, but a deduplicate option is available before sorting. Duplicates are removed before the sort order is applied.
Will it sort lines that contain numbers mixed with text?
Yes, though results depend on whether you select alphabetical or numerical mode. Alphabetical mode sorts digit characters by their character code, not their numeric value.
