how can i reorder a list onto 1 line with ; seperating the words?

[{{909}}]

stupid topic, stupid task, stupid hangover

i have a list of emails, which i want to change from a standard list format, so theyre all on one line with just a ; seperating them, eg:

dick@head.com
hang@over.com
homebrew@cider.com

to

dick@head.com;hang@over.com;homebrew@cider.com

im not too clued up with word and the likes, but i would guess theres a method in that

cheers

I think it would be best done in the .txt format (Notpad) so that whatever program you want to read it, can!

As for putting a ; separator, without any thirdparty software, i think you would have to do it manually!

If you had any other different characters, you could have used the "Find and replace" function. So it looks like you might have to do it manually!

I'm off to the pub to watch football now, however if you wait till when I get back later on then I'll make you an app to do it. In the mean time, if there's anything else you want in it, let me know!

Mate there is actually is a piss easy way in Word, just make it display the special characters, and it will display the carriage / return codes as some symbol, just copy one, then go into search / replace, paste your special character into the search box and enter the semicolon as the replacement and replace all - job done!

And if you spam me I'm coming round your house and slapping you lol

If you're stuck then use this...

Usage: Lines [inFile] [outFile]

eg:

Lines emails.txt out.txt
