Sort text lines

FileGizmo sorts newline-separated text without uploading lists, identifiers, filenames, or private notes. Paste one value per line, choose ascending or descending direction, and select alphabetical or natural comparison. Natural order understands embedded numbers, so chapter2 appears before chapter10; alphabetical order follows locale-aware text comparison.

The sort is stable. When two lines compare equally, their original order is preserved, making results predictable when case or repeated values are involved. Optional case-sensitive comparison distinguishes uppercase and lowercase values. You can also remove empty lines before sorting while leaving all non-empty content unchanged. Leading and trailing spaces remain part of a line unless blank-line removal identifies a line containing only whitespace.

Processing runs in a browser worker so long lists do not freeze the page. The result summary reports how many lines were sorted and how many blanks were removed. Copy the output or download a UTF-8 text file. For locale-specific dictionaries or domain rules, review the result because browser collation may differ from a specialized database sort.
