Question 1

What does adding a prefix to each line mean?

Accepted Answer

Adding a prefix means inserting a fixed piece of text at the beginning of every line in your input. For example, adding '- ' as a prefix will turn each line into a markdown list item.

Question 2

Can I add both a prefix and a suffix at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can fill in both the prefix and suffix fields simultaneously. The tool will add the prefix at the start and the suffix at the end of each line in one operation.

Question 3

What does 'Skip empty lines' do?

Accepted Answer

When this option is enabled, blank lines in your input are passed through to the output unchanged — the prefix and suffix are not added to them. This is useful when your text has intentional blank lines between sections.

Question 4

What are common use cases for this tool?

Accepted Answer

Common uses include adding bullet points or list markers to lines, wrapping each line in HTML tags, adding SQL commas to column names, prepending import statements, or formatting data for configuration files.

Question 5

Is there a limit on how many lines I can process?

Accepted Answer

There is no hard limit. The tool processes your text entirely in the browser, so performance depends on your device. It handles thousands of lines comfortably without any issues.
