How It Works
The Line Ending Counter works by scanning your text for invisible characters called "newline characters." These characters are created every time you press the "Enter" or "Return" key in your text editor. The tool counts these characters to give you the total number of line endings in your text. It’s like having a tiny, invisible assistant who reads your text and counts all the breaks for you—no math required!
