[Cialug] Text file munging

My suggestion is to install RegexBuddy (http://www.regexbuddy.com) in  
WINE and tailor the regex to whatever method you're using. I haven't  
been able to find a similar application that is as useful as  
RegexBuddy for Linux or Mac. I'm tempted to write one, but I've had no  
trouble running it in WINE or CrossOver.

With Best Regards,
Rob Freiburger

I have a bunch of individual email messages from mail.app that have been
disassociated from their mailbox. I have tried copying them into the
messages folder but they don't go because of two lines in the plist at  
the
end. I need to remove
         <key>remote-id</key>
         <string>4294</string>
from 20,000 files. The number varies and the location at the end of the
file can move a few lines at a time. I've tried my regex magic on it but
don't have enough to get it working. Any help?
