Maximum 100,000 characters and 50,000 parsed items. Retained item text stays unchanged unless trimming is enabled.

A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Paste a list up to 100,000 characters and choose its literal input separator.
  2. Choose the output separator and whether to trim or remove empty items.
  3. Reverse the item order, review the exact result, then copy it or download a text file.

Item order reverses, item text does not

The last parsed item becomes first, and the first becomes last. This is positional reversal rather than alphabetical sorting or character reversal. Retained values keep their exact text unless you enable trimming.

Literal separators and explicit empty-item rules

Choose newline, comma, tab, semicolon, or one to 20 literal custom characters for input and output. Regular expressions are never executed. Empty items from consecutive or edge separators remain in the reversed sequence unless you remove them. Input is limited to 50,000 parsed items and output to 500,000 characters.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Does this reverse the letters in each item?

No. It reverses the order of whole list items and leaves their internal text unchanged.

Does it sort the list?

No. Sorting compares values; this tool simply flips their existing positions.

What happens to consecutive separators?

They create empty items. Keep them to reverse those positions too, or enable empty-item removal.
