When this tool helps
Use this tool when text is separated by a delimiter and needs to become one item per line.
It is useful for copied tags, IDs, labels, exported fields, and short values that do not require full CSV parsing.
Common cleanup options
Custom delimiter
Split pipe-separated, slash-separated, comma-like, or custom separated text into a clean line-by-line list.
Cleanup control
Trim each item and remove blanks created by repeated delimiters.
Reverse workflow
Use this with the custom line joiner when moving between delimited text and line-by-line lists.
Browser processing
The current version runs in your browser and does not require an account.
How to use it
- Paste text that uses a repeated delimiter.
- Enter the delimiter to split on.
- Choose trimming and empty-item cleanup.
- Run the tool to place each item on its own line.
Privacy and limitations
This tool does not parse quoted fields, escaped delimiters, or uploaded files.
Use a dedicated CSV parser when delimiters can appear inside values.
Frequently asked questions
