Batch process a text file

[d_brennen]

Not too great at explaining myself, bear with me. I have a text file containing hundreds of thousands of email addresses and need to process that into a list of domains (i.e. remove everything before the @)

[email protected]

to

@example.com

It's a plain text file. Anyone have any idea of how to do this? Have access to Windows, Arch, Debian and Ubuntu

Could you import the file into excel and use the @ symbol as the separator and just delete the first column

Try that, should remove everything before the @ and dump the results into a text file in the directory the app is in, drag a file onto the box to add it.

Seeing as each line will only have a single @ this will indeed work as a quick and dirty method!

That worked a treat thank you. Hung my computer for a while, I was reaching for the power switch

Excel just laughed at the list
