Click "Alphabetical" for case insensitive, ascending, alphabetical sorting. Click attached "Cs" button for case sensitive results.
Click "Natural" for case insensitive natural sorting of lines. Click attached "Cs" button for case sensitive results.
"Natural" sorting is resource intensive. Large inputs are slow to process. Use "Alphabetical" sort for large inputs.
"Sort by delimiter" can sort by first, second ... last character, first, second ... last word in "Alphabetical" and "Natural" mode only.
Default sorting column will be the first character of each new line. Default setting will contain an empty delimiter and column number of 1.
To sort via the second character enter a column number of 2. Sort via second word by entering a space as delimiter and column number of 2.
Click "Length" to sort lines by character length. Pre-sort alphabetically for length sorted results to be in alphabetical order.
Click "Random" to randomize line order.
Click "Reverse" to reverse current line order. Use to create descending order from ascending sorted lists.
