I guess you know I expend a lot of time working with words… Throughout time I’ve coded apps that help me deal with tons of words, but a week ago I was testing one of my illustration and needed to sort words by their length. I realised that option wasn’t in my current tools.

My experience with C# is growing from the last January and I really love it. I’m using C# mainly to create tools for Revit,  but I though it was time to give it a try with one of my crazy needs.

It is incredible how fast you can create a simple app like this. In about a half hour I ended with something ugly, probably buggy but working tool to sort lines by line length.

Yes I know there must be a lot of tools around there that can do the same thing, but in case you find it useful you can download, distribute and use it for free. But remember, no guarantees!.
