> I know it is possible to sort words and sort lines alphabetically in emacs org-mode 

Would you please be so kind to explain to me how?

I have only:
org-sort-entries          M-x ... RET     Sort entries on a certain level of an outline tree.
org-sort-list              M-x ... RET       Sort list items.
org-table-sort-lines                           <Sort lines in region> in a table.


Is it possible to sort words like:

banana fruit chees  apple

or lines like 


banana 

fruit
chees 

apple 



> but is it possible to sort phrases ?

> Face the music, Fifteen minutes of fame, A beautiful mind.
> I want to sort it alphabetically like, 
>  A beautiful mind, Face the music, Fifteen minutes of fame.

In Emacs everything is possible.

- substitute "," with \n
- sort region
- substitute \n with ","

Cheers,

Giovanni
