hbSort

hbSort is a handy tool for anyone who spends a lot of time working with text on their computer. You know how important it is to keep things organized, especially when you're dealing with lists. Well, hbSort is here to help you sort those lists quickly and easily based on different criteria.

Easy to Use Right After Download

The best part? You can start using hbSort as soon as you finish downloading it! There's no installation needed, which makes it super convenient. Just a heads-up, though: make sure you have the .NET Framework installed on your computer if you plan to use it from a thumb drive.

User-Friendly Design

The visual layout might seem a bit tricky at first glance, but don’t worry! It won't take long before you get the hang of it. To start sorting, just load your file into the big canvas area where you'll see all your content displayed. The tools you'll need are conveniently located in the upper toolbar.

File Formats and Editing Options

You can only work with TXT files, and remember, you can only load one file at a time. While hbSort isn't like your typical text editor—there are no fancy editing features—you can still make quick changes right there on the spot. Your original files stay safe unless you save over them by accident!

Sorting Made Simple

Once you've finished sorting, you'll end up with a neat TXT file organized by rows. Plus, there's an option to remove duplicate lines—a real lifesaver when cleaning up lists! You also get to choose whether or not to pay attention to character casing while sorting.

Two Sorting Methods

The sorting options are straightforward: you can either create columns with fields or sort using delimiters. Whether you're looking for ascending or descending order, hbSort has got you covered!

A Lightweight Solution

If you're often handling large TXT files filled with lists, hbSort is definitely worth checking out. It’s lightweight and practical; setting up input and filters is a breeze! Plus, your original files will always remain unchanged while you sort them either by columns or custom characters.
