Home › Text Tools › Line Counter
Count the number of lines in any text — with options to count empty lines separately or exclude them, and see line numbers alongside your content.
Count lines in text · total empty non-empty lines · chars per line average · instant live count
Add any multi-line text — a list, a code file, a CSV export, or a document.
Toggle whether to count empty lines, and whether to show line numbers alongside the content.
See total lines (with and without empty lines) and copy the numbered version if needed.
A line is any sequence of characters followed by a newline character. An empty line (just a newline with no preceding characters) counts as a line by default but can be excluded with the toggle. The final line of text without a trailing newline still counts as a line.
Total lines counts every line including blank lines. Non-empty lines counts only lines that contain at least one character. The difference between the two numbers tells you how many blank lines are in the content — useful for files with inconsistent spacing or CSV exports with empty rows.
Line counting is useful for: checking the line count of a code file or script, counting items in a list (one item per line), verifying CSV row counts, checking that a data export has the expected number of records, and splitting a large list to confirm it has the right number of entries before processing.

Line count is the fundamental measure of list and data size — how many records in a CSV, how many URLs in a crawl export, how many items in a keyword list, how many lines in a code file. This counter handles all the edge cases that come up in practice: empty line exclusion, trailing newline handling, and optional line-number display for content that will be referenced by line number in a review or audit. It’s a simple tool that solves a precise problem — knowing exactly how many lines are in a block of content.
