How are text comparison results displayed?
Newly added lines are marked with +, removed lines with -, and unchanged lines with =. The summary also shows added, removed, unchanged, and total line counts.
When should I ignore leading and trailing spaces?
Use this when lines only differ by spaces at the beginning or end, but the actual content is the same.
When is excluding blank lines useful?
Use this when you want to exclude empty lines created by document spacing or copy-paste gaps.
What does ignore case mean?
This option treats uppercase and lowercase English letters as the same. For example, Hello and hello can be considered identical.
Can it compare by word?
This tool is based on line-level comparison. If only one word changes in a sentence, the whole line may still appear in the change flow.
Can I enter sensitive text?
This tool compares text in the browser, but it is still recommended to remove or mask passwords, API keys, personal information, and internal documents before entering them.
