Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the tool handle numbers?
When sorting alphabetically (A-Z or Z-A), numbers are treated as text characters. This means "10" will come before "2" because the character '1' comes before '2'. For true numerical sorting, ensure all your lines are numbers and consider using a spreadsheet program.
Does it remove duplicate lines?
No, this tool does not automatically remove duplicate lines. It will sort all lines that you provide, including any duplicates.
