Text Line Formatter

The tool provides deterministic text formatting by applying a minimal set of domain rules to any plain text input. It focuses on line ending normalization, paragraph delineation, and whitespace cleanup to produce predictable, diff-friendly output. It supports mixed sources (manual notes, exported text, or scraped content) and targets editors, writers, localization engineers, and automation pipelines that require consistent text structure. The output preserves content meaning while removing irregular breaks, trailing spaces, and inconsistent indentations.
Core rules implemented by default: convert all line endings to LF; replace CRLF and lone CR with LF; collapse sequences of empty lines to at most one; trim trailing spaces on each line; ensure consistent indentation where present. Optional, advanced behavior may include wrapping long lines to a specified width, preserving fenced code blocks, and optionally preserving bullet or numbering prefixes. The formatter is designed as a deterministic processor suitable for batch jobs and real-time pipelines.
Audience and value: writers and editors gain faster preparation for publication, QA teams reduce review cycles, and developers can sanitize content before ingestion into CMS or docs. Differentiators include robust handling of multi-language text, preservation of code blocks, and a strict, repeatable rule set that avoids introducing content changes beyond spacing and breaks. It is suitable for use in content pipelines, localization workflows, and documentation preparation. Use cases include cleaning draft manuscripts, standardizing scraped or user-contributed text, and producing clean passages for release notes, help systems, or customer communications. The tool operates transparently, with no grammar or translation edits, and provides predictable results regardless of source formatting.
