Find & Replace, Compare, and Sort: Text Tools for Editors

Editing text at scale means doing the same small change many times over, or spotting the one line that's different between two versions. These three tools take the manual work out of it.

Find and replace, properly

Find & Replace covers 12 different find-and-replace and highlight operations, including regex and multi-pair replace — for changing more than one thing at once, or matching patterns a simple find can't.

Spotting the differences

Text Comparison compares two blocks of text eight different ways: word-level diffs, line-by-line changes, list comparison, and a similarity score — useful for reviewing edits or checking how close two drafts really are.

Putting things in order

Text Sorter sorts lines, words, and numbers 14 different ways — alphabetically, by length, naturally, or at random.

Together, they cover the editing tasks that are simple in theory but tedious to do by hand.
