possible use case - create tiddlers from email list to use with text slicer

[Alex Hough]

Use case

I have been copied into an email together with innumerable people, i don't know who they are. I want to create a TW creating one tiddler per person by cutting and pasting the list of emails into a tiddler on the text slicer edition [1] then export the tiddlers so that I can import them into a TiddlyMap.

The Data

The data has the format "Name <e.m...@foo.com>

for example

Alex Hough <r.a....@gmail.com>

and the emails are separated by commas

The first problem I ran into was creating paragraphs from the list. While each name and email address is on different lines, the text slicer doesn't create a new tiddler for each line, it needs new paragraphs.

any thoughts

Best wishes
