I need a software for putting sentences to a list

[Pure Beast]

By this I mean that I need a software that can make words that have spaces into different lines. Like this for example: 

sample text software

 

to

 

sample

text

software

 

I don't know how to explain it further

So basically a find and replace where you swap out the space character for the new line character?  Should be easy enough in a number of ways.  There are lots of scripting tools that will do it, and I think even a hex editor would work well.  Something like XVI32 iirc

Just remember that on Windows a new line actually takes two characters

It's a bit of a goofy solution. But if you're dealing with just a plain .txt file use the find and replace feature in notepad, or another simple text editor (something that doesn't add formatting to the file) to replace all the spaces with <br>. Then change the file extension from .txt to .html. Open it in a browser and copy all of the text. When you paste it back into a text editor. It should retain all of the inserted line breaks. 

 

If you're using something that DOES add formatting to your original text file. Copy all of the text from inside the file into notepad and save as a .txt before doing the above.
