About the Text Line Reverser

The Text Line Reverser lets you quickly reverse the order of lines in a block of text.

Reordering lines by hand — copying, cutting, and pasting each one in reverse — is slow and error prone, especially with a long list or log file. This tool splits your text on line breaks and puts them back together in the opposite order in a single click, which is handy any time you need to read something bottom-to-top or reverse a list without retyping it.

How to Use the Reverser

1

Paste your text

Enter or paste a multi-line block of text.

2

Click "Reverse"

The order of the lines is instantly flipped.

3

Copy the result

Use the "Copy" button to save the reversed text.
