Examples
Compact a hard-wrapped paragraph
Text wrapped at 80 chars from an older email collapses into one flowing line, ready to paste anywhere modern.
Build a CSV cell
Replace newlines with " | " so the multi-line address fits in a single cell while still being readable.
Common use cases
- Fixing hard-wrapped text from emails or legacy editors
- Packing multi-line content into a single CSV/JSON field
- Preparing text for HTML attributes or URL parameters
- One-line summarisation of bulleted notes
Troubleshooting
- Words run together with no space.
- Default mode joins with empty string. Switch to "Replace with space" mode so words stay separated.
