phone-email-extractor

Say you have the boring task of finding every phone number and email address in a long web page or document. If you manually scroll through the page, you might end up searching for a long time. But if you had a pro- gram that could search the text in your clipboard for phone numbers and email addresses, you could simply press ctrl -A to select all the text, press ctrl -C to copy it to the clipboard, and then run your program. It could replace the text on the clipboard with just the phone numbers and email addresses it finds.

what it does

1. Get the text off the clipboard.
2. Find all the phone numbers and email addresses in the text document.
3. Paste them onto the clipboard.
4. Use the pyperclip module to copy ans paste the strings.
5. Create two regexes, one for matching phone numbers and the other for matching email addresses.
6. Find all matches, not just the first match, of both regexes.
7. Neatly format the matched strings into a single string to paste.
8. Display some kind of message if no matches were found in the text.
