Has anybody come across a shell script to parse a large number of text

For example

input:
 package com.shop.backoffice;
 import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
 /**
  * Test class for blah
  * $Id: blah.java,v 1.2.2.3 2004/01/21 10:03:04 jwilson Exp $
  */

If you have access to the repository, then you can use cvs export. It will turn that Id line into


* Id: blah.java,v 1.2.2.3 2004/01/21 10:03:04 jwilson Exp

(the $ characters are removed)


There's also a -k switch (check the manual) you can use with cvs update(?) or checkout that would leave it

* $Id$


Of course, if this is third party source, then you need a script.
