Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about whitespace rules, hard-wrap restoration, and browser-local processing.
Does this whitespace cleaner upload my text to an external server?
No. All whitespace transformations run directly in your browser. Your files and text inputs are not uploaded to Pinatool’s servers.
What does "repair hard-wrapped prose" do?
It reconnects lines of text that were broken by terminal or email hard-wrapping into natural flowing paragraphs, and rejoins words that were hyphenated across lines.
Can I remove repeated spaces while preserving indentation?
Yes. You can leave "Collapse repeated spaces" off or enable "Trim line endings" to clean only unwanted trailing whitespace without altering your code or document indentations.
How does empty line limiting work?
Selecting "Limit to one empty line" collapses runs of multiple blank lines into a single blank line, perfectly preserving paragraph separation without messy gaps.
