About this tool

With "ignore spaces and punctuation" on (the usual way palindromes like "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" are judged), only letters and digits are compared — spacing and punctuation are stripped first. Turn it off to check literally character-for-character, including every space and symbol. Comparison uses Unicode-aware character splitting, so accented letters and other multi-byte characters are handled correctly.
