The problem is that I need to find the pattern at position mod 8.  I can't
use this 32 times like I can for the highlighting rule because the pattern
might not match at position 8 but it could at position 16 but if I've
already deleted it I will never know.

And as far as adding the line 32 times is concerned, you could

Or an autocmd on the file type.  Good idea.
