Clean and sort text lines
A frequent cleanup task for word lists, identifier lists, or log extracts. Trimming first ensures that lines differing only by surrounding whitespace are treated as duplicates. The sort step produces a deterministic order, making diffs and reviews straightforward.
What it solves
Trim whitespace from every line, then sort and deduplicate the result for a clean canonical list.
