How to use it
- Enter text, delimiter in the text, trim spaces around each line and skip empty lines.

- Copy the result, or copy a link that keeps the same values to share it.
How it is calculated
Split at the chosen delimiter (comma covers "," and the Arabic "،", semicolon covers ";" and "؛") and at existing line breaks, trim, drop empty items and put each item on a line.
Example
Inputs: Delimiter in the text = Comma (, or ،), Trim spaces around each line = yes, Skip empty lines = yes. Result: Result: Riyadh Jeddah Dammam Mecca; Items: 4.
Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Mecca
Riyadh Jeddah Dammam Mecca
Limits and caveats
- Quotes are not understood, so a comma inside quotes also splits. For CSV data use the CSV row to list tool.
Questions about this tool
Does it support the Arabic comma?
Yes. The comma option splits at both "," and "،", so it works for Arabic and English text.
What if the text already has line breaks?
Line breaks count as an extra delimiter, so two items never end up on the same line.
How do I paste the result into Excel?
Copy the result and paste it into a cell. Excel puts each item in its own row.
