TextTrimmer

TextTrimmer is a handy tool for anyone dealing with text. It’s not just about writing paragraphs; there are loads of tasks involved, especially if you're handling multiple rows or columns in a plain text file. This can get pretty tricky, but that’s where TextTrimmer steps in to help clean up your text according to different rules.

Easy to Use Right Away

The best part? You can start using it right after you download it—no installation required! That means you can stick it on a thumb drive and use it on other computers without messing with their settings. Your computer won’t even know it’s there!

User-Friendly Design

On the visual side, TextTrimmer keeps things simple with a classic window layout. Most of the space is dedicated to the editing area where your imported text appears. At the top, there’s a toolbar packed with sorting options and rules that make enhancing your text super easy.

Supported File Type

You’ll be working exclusively with TXT files here. To open one, you need to use the browse dialog since dragging and dropping won’t work in this case. The status bar at the bottom gives you useful info like the number of initial and new rows and even where your mouse is positioned.

No Accidental Edits!

A cool feature is that you can't edit the loaded text directly, which helps avoid any mishaps while you're working. Instead, you’ll use trimming tools which let you specify blocks or set up different rules for trimming.

Trim Blocks or Set Rules

If you want to trim blocks of text, that's easy—just pick what you want to move over or remove any marks you've noted down manually. But if you're looking for something more automated, go for setting rules! You can trim blanks, split lines, eliminate duplicate contiguous lines, and plenty more.

A Practical Choice

All in all, TextTrimmer is a practical app designed for handling lists in plain text format. It might seem a bit confusing at first glance, but once you get into it, you'll see how easy it is to identify and configure those rules!
