I'm taking the contents of a FMPro cell and echoing it into this awk statement. Problem is that some records have cells containing some unpredictable characters like (), "" / \.

I'd like to extract email addresses from a mess of text. I've been making attempts just using Ascript. It makes the text handling easier, but pulling it off in one line in a shell cmd is nice.

do shell script
"echo " & stuff & "| awk -F \":\" '{ for (i=1; i<=NF; i++){ if ($i ~ \"@\" ){ print $5}}}'"



Example mess of text--
