Hi , Need to shell script to extracts files names and write those to another file in different directory.

inputfile.txt
Code:

123 david123
123 rudy2345
124 tinku5634
abc|1|def.dat
123 jevid123
123 qwer2345
124 ghjlk5634
abc|1|pqr.txt
123 vbjnnjh435
123 jggdy876
124 gjksda456

the output is :
output.txt
Code:
bcd.dat
123 david123
123 rudy2345
124 tinku5634
def.dat
123 jevid123
