Choose what whitespace to remove
This whitespace remover lets you remove white spaces exactly the way you need. Each option can be switched on or off: double spaces become one space, tabs become spaces, spaces at the start and end of lines are trimmed, and empty lines can be removed.
Useful for lists and data
Trimming lines is especially useful for lists of names, emails or product codes, where a hidden space at the end can make two items look different.
