Remove Duplicate Lines — Free Text Utility

Remove Duplicate Lines scans a block of text line by line and removes exact repeats, keeping only the first occurrence of each unique line — a common cleanup step when merging email lists, combining CSV exports, deduplicating log entries, or tidying up a list that was compiled from multiple sources. A case-sensitive toggle controls whether "Email" and "email" are treated as duplicates or kept separate, and an optional blank-line removal setting cleans up spacing at the same time. This is faster and less error-prone than manually scrolling through a list looking for repeats, especially for lists running into hundreds or thousands of lines.
