a script (not tcl) which does the removal of everything between < and > could look like: sed -e 's/<[^>]*>/ /g' if you want to do the above all in 1 line without the necessity of temporary files you could do this (note the newlines are necessary but are all contained within the quotes): sed -n -e ' s/<[^>]*>/ /g /\[TODO\]/p /\[FIXME\]/p' * Or if you prefer you can put the 3 lines within the quotes into a file and then run: sed -n -f filename * You could also add the line (add it as the second line): s/[^\[]*\[/[/ which will remove everything up to the first [ (ie remove the time and name), although you may like to keep those.
