Extract text blocks separated by semicolons

This tool extracts text blocks separated by semicolons from your text. It splits the input text into distinct blocks using semicolons (;) as the delimiter. The tool offers flexible options so you can: • Extract every text block. • Extract only blocks that contain specified substring(s). • Extract all blocks except those containing specified substring(s). • Format each extracted block using a custom format. Additionally, you can choose to trim whitespace from each block, remove duplicate blocks, and sort the blocks alphabetically. Simply enter your text and select the extraction mode and settings that suit your needs.
