Thanks everyone for your quick response.  I'll give it a go later (and
yes, I will back up my files first!).  I've been meaning to learn how to
use regular expressions (and Perl) for a while now (like about six
years).  I guess I'll get there eventually - by the way, is Perl
obsolescent these days or is it something that's here to stay for a while?

Cheers,

Nick
