About The Alphabetizer

The Alphabetizer is a web tool that puts a list in alphabetical order. Users paste or type items into a text box, choose options, and press the Alphabetize button. The options include sorting by last name, ignoring leading articles in titles, removing duplicate lines, reversing the order, stripping HTML, and randomizing the list. The homepage names uses such as homework lists, business lists, and lists copied from Word or Excel.

The homepage says its option explanations are basic and do not describe all of the tool's functions. It states that the separator setting detects commas or spaces automatically and should be left on auto unless problems occur. The homepage does not state pricing, so known pricing is unknown.
