When sorting by length helps
Sorting lines by length is useful for spotting outliers in keyword lists, tidying CSS or import statements into a neat 'pyramid', and finding the shortest or longest product names, titles or domains.
Alphabetical sorting that feels natural
Alphabetical mode uses locale-aware comparison, so 'apple' and 'Apple' sit together and accented letters sort where readers expect them.
FAQ
Is the sort case-sensitive?
It uses locale-aware comparison, so uppercase and lowercase sort together naturally.
How does 'by length' sort ties?
Lines of equal length keep their original relative order (stable sort).
Can I reverse the sort?
Yes — pick Z–A for reverse alphabetical order.
