Frequently asked questions
Does Sort Lines save my text?
No. Sort Lines processes everything in your browser; nothing is uploaded or stored.
Can Sort Lines handle non-English text?
Yes — it uses Unicode-standard rules that work for most major scripts.
Is there a length limit?
Practically, several MB of text. Beyond that the browser starts to lag.
Can I trust the count for assignment / SEO purposes?
Sort Lines matches the published Unicode standard. Cross-check against the tool of record (Word, your CMS) if that's what's being graded against.
