How does it work
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It tries to find any occurrence of TLD in given text. If TLD is found it
starts from that position to expand boundaries to both sides searching
for "stop character" (usually whitespace, comma, single or double
quote).

NOTE: List of TLDs is downloaded from iana.org to keep you up to date with new TLDs.

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Package is available on PyPI - you can install it via pip.
