How to use Remove a List Item Suffix
- 1. Paste your list. Enter your items into the input pane, one per line, keeping whatever trailing text currently sits at the end of each item.
- 2. Enter the suffix to remove. Type the exact text at the end of each item in Suffix to remove, such as a file extension, trailing punctuation or a repeated closing marker.
- 3. Decide whether to remove it repeatedly. Turn on Remove the suffix repeatedly if the same suffix might be stacked more than once at the end of an item, stripping every repeated occurrence instead of just one.
- 4. Copy the cleaned list. The output pane shows every item with the matching suffix removed. Copy the plain values wherever the bare text is needed.
When to use Remove a List Item Suffix
Remove a List Item Suffix strips a shared piece of trailing text off every item in a list. Use Remove a List Item Suffix whenever items end in a common extension, punctuation or marker you want gone.
- Stripping a file extension from a list of names. A list of filenames all share the same extension, and removing it leaves just the base names for renaming, sorting or further processing without the extension.
- Dropping trailing commas left over from code. A list of values copied out of a code array still has a trailing comma on every line, and removing that suffix leaves clean, usable values.
- Cleaning repeated trailing whitespace markers. A list has a trailing marker character duplicated at the end of some lines from a formatting error, and removing it repeatedly clears every stacked instance.
- Removing a shared domain from a list of email addresses. A list of email addresses all end in the same company domain, and stripping that suffix leaves just the usernames for a shorter internal reference list.
