Remove First Word from Each Line

Please log in or register to do it.

This tool removes the “first word” (or the first few words) from each line of your text according to different rules. For example, you can always remove the first word, or only remove it if it’s entirely uppercase, lowercase, numeric, etc. You can also remove up to 2, 3, 4, or 5 words at once. Lines that don’t meet your chosen rule remain unchanged.
