What it does
TextSoap is a Mac text-processing application with custom cleaners and editor aids including invisible characters, line numbers and statistics.
Build a custom cleaner when the same copied-text problem recurs. Invisible characters and line numbers help locate the defect; arrange actions in the cleaner outline and organize cleaners into project groups. For Each Line treats each line as its own text, while sorting can respect case, numbers or regex result templates. Lists provide row-driven repeated replacements. Import/export shares cleaners and groups as library files. The companion agent exposes Services, hotkeys and AppleScript. TextSoap offers a trial on macOS 11 or later.
