What Is Text Sorter Z-A?
Default A-Z reports bury the entries you actually want at the bottom. Manually reversing 200 lines is tedious.
Paste your list and get it sorted Z to A instantly.
If you're auditing inventory, you spot Z-prefixed clearance SKUs first. If you're building a program, you place late-name keynotes early. If you're reviewing archives, you see most-recent additions on top.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this just A-Z flipped?
For unique entries, yes. For duplicates, tie-order may differ.
Tip: Reverse-sort is one op; sort-then-flip is two.
Where do numbers go?
In reverse ASCII, digits come after letters.
Tip: Filter to letters-only for cleaner output.
What about accented letters?
Locale-aware mode keeps é near e. Raw ASCII puts é after z.
Tip: Use locale-aware for international lists.
Does it sort negative numbers correctly?
Lexicographically, '-9' beats '-1'. Use a numeric sorter for true number order.
Tip: This is alphabetical, not numerical.
Does Z-A sorting alter the line text itself?
No, only the order changes. Characters in each line stay identical.
Tip: Safe for archived data.
Reverse-sort then dedupe?
Reverse first, then Remove Duplicate Lines to keep last-occurrence.
Tip: Use when newer entries should win.
