    How it works

    Control characters removed: Filters C0/C1 control codes (U+0000–U+001F, U+007F–U+009F).
    Optional whitespace: Preserve tabs and line breaks if you need to keep layout.
    Readable output: Keeps all printable characters exactly as entered.
    100% local: Everything runs in your browser for privacy.
