[2 suggestions]About the Remove Duplicate Lines
The Remove Duplicate Lines tool iterates through your input line by line, maintaining a set of previously seen lines. When a line is encountered for the first time, it is kept in the output and added to the seen set. Any subsequent occurrence of an identical line is silently dropped. This preserves the original ordering of first-occurrences, which is important when your data has intentional sequencing (e.g. a chronological log or a ranked keyword list). The comparison is case-sensitive and exact: "Apple" and "apple" are treated as distinct lines, and leading/trailing whitespace matters. If you need case-insensitive deduplication, normalize your text first using the Case Converter tool. Common use cases include cleaning exported email subscriber lists, deduplicating CSV columns pasted from spreadsheets, consolidating tag lists, and removing repeated entries from configuration files.
