Sublime Lines - Multisets

This Sublime Text plugin allows you to compare, merge and manipulate lists of things, whether they are todo items, lists of files or arrays from API responses:

How to use

Switch to a file with a list you want to modify and select an operation to perform from the Command Palette (or using Edit -> Lines - Multisets menu).

Operations

Add

The result is all items from both lists. Example:

List 1	List 2
one	two
three	three
four	four
four

Result: one, two, three, three, four, four, four

Union

The result is items from both lists, but only one item for every match. Example:

List 1	List 2	Match
one	two
three	three	✔️
four	four	✔️
four

Result: one, two, three, four, four

Intersection

The result is only items that exist in both lists. Example:

List 1	List 2	Match	Result
one	two
three	three	✔️	three
four	four	✔️	four
four	five
five	five	✔️	five
five	five	✔️	five

Difference

The result is items from list 1 that don't have a match in list 2. Example:

List 1	List 2	Match	Result
one	two		one
three	three	✔️
four	four	✔️
four	five		four
five	five	✔️
five	five	✔️

Symmetric difference

The result is items that exist in only one of the lists. Example:

one	two
three	three	✔️
four	four	✔️
four	five
five	five	✔️
five	five	✔️

Result: one, two, four, five
