FAQ
Are numbers sorted naturally?+
Yes — '1, 2, 10, 11' sorts naturally (not lexicographic 1, 10, 11, 2).
Does it work with mixed Korean and English?+
Yes. Uses Intl.Collator for natural sorting — Korean by gananada order, English alphabetically.
How does dedupe work?+
Keeps only the first occurrence of each line after sorting. Combined with case-insensitive or whitespace-ignore options, 'apple' and 'Apple' count as the same.
When do I use random shuffle?+
Picking presentation order, shuffling flashcards, randomly assigning lists, etc. Uses Web Crypto secure RNG.
Does data copied from Excel work?+
Copying a single Excel column gives newline-separated text — paste it as-is and sort.
Can I use this for sorting references?+
Yes, though the dedicated Bibliography Sorter tool also supports hanging indent and is better for academic references.
