Bullet list maker: questions and answers
Which bullet character is added?
A hyphen followed by a space, like “- milk”, which Markdown and most editors turn into a bullet.
Which bullets can it remove?
Hyphens, stars, plus signs and common bullet symbols at the start of a line, as long as a space follows.
Can I use a star or a number instead of a hyphen?
Use Add text to each line with the character you want as the prefix, or Number lines for a numbered list.
Are empty lines turned into bullets?
No. Empty lines stay empty, so paragraphs of bullets keep their spacing.
Is my text sent to a server?
No. Everything runs in your browser on your own device, so your text never leaves it.
