Thanks but the exercise is too strip out the line completely - reason being to minimise unnecessarily checking of code 'conflicts' while merging with eclipse.

It doesn't remove the whole line (a bad idea anyway, since sometimes other information may be on the line :-)) but removes any potentially sensitive information. For example, if you issue the command cvs export -Dnow -kk module all keywords in module will be changed to just the keyword value: $Revision: 1.1$ becomes $Revision$ and so on.
