This is a complete (small) sorter. Items in the upper chest run through the six filters, each of which has a target chest. Unmatched items end up in the chest on the lower right.
The steel blue filter super-hopper show a blue tab in the direction things normally go, and a redstone indicator towards where the filtered items go.
In this mode, the target will receive the same kinds of items in the filter area, or the target container if there are no examples.
In this mode, you can type tags or text to define what gets filtered. Here it will match any blocks with the tag "wool", or that has "dirt" in its name

The Philter mod gives you a filter super-hopper that works with vanilla Minecraft or any mod. Any kind of items can be diverted into a different output container, using multiple ways to set up what's filtered!
