Hey Jerry,
This sort of job is easily done with BBEdit's Find & Replace, so you can save
the regular expression for future usage in BBEdit's saved pattern area or via
another mechanism.

Or you can set up some useful Text Filters.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Strip Characters from beginning of lines.
sed -E 's/^.{2}//'
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Strip Characters from end of lines.
sed -E 's/.{2}$//'
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Add prefix to lines.
sed -E 's/^/My Prefex!!!! /'
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Add suffix to lines.
sed -E 's/$/ My Suffix!!!!/'
See the user manual for Text Filter usage.
There's also a bit on the BBEditExtras site
<http://bbeditextras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Text_Filters>.
