Steps to verify

  • Identify list versus prose.
  • Check the empty-line option.
  • Read output separation and order.

How to interpret the result

Even when retaining empty lines, matching empty strings can be deduplicated. Do not assume every paragraph gap is preserved.

Deciding what to do next

For important paragraph structure, compare against the original and consider paragraph-level editing. Inspect the pasted result too.

Feature scope

Keep first-occurrence order while removing matching strings, with trim and empty-line options and case-sensitive comparison, not semantic merging.

Frequently asked questions

Are whitespace-only lines empty?

Trimming can turn them into empty strings. Review both options together.
