Thank you for this script! Are you able to improve the parsing logic so that it accepts TLDs with multiple parts? For example:
domain.co.uk
domain.com.au
domain.co.nz

Best regards

I'm afraid I don't have time to rewrite the script to handle multi-part TLDs right now, but you could always hardcode it instead of having it split it automatically.
