Tool overview
How delimiters and quoted values are split
This splitter recognizes common separators, exact custom delimiters, and guarded regular expressions. Quote-aware mode avoids splitting delimiters inside double-quoted values, while cleanup controls trim, remove blanks, deduplicate, limit splits, or retain matched delimiters.
Turn one delimited string into rows
- Convert a comma list into spreadsheet-ready rows
- Split pipe-delimited exports
- Break text on flexible whitespace patterns
- Keep quoted values containing commas intact
Split on a delimiter or guarded pattern
- Paste the delimited text.
- Choose a standard delimiter, custom delimiter, or regular expression.
- Set quote handling, cleanup, split limit, and delimiter retention.
- Review and copy the one-value-per-line result.
Quotes, limits, cleanup, and retained delimiters
- Preserve quoted values prevents separators inside double quotes from creating a new line.
- Unescape quoted values removes structural quotes and turns doubled quotes into one.
- A split limit of zero means unlimited splits.
- Regex mode is length- and input-limited and rejects common nested-repetition risks.

Unclosed quotes and regex ceilings
- An unclosed quoted value stops processing with an error.
- A custom delimiter must contain at least one character.
- Regular-expression mode is capped at 1 MB and 100,000 splits.
