I know very little about either, honestly.  But I do scour Google for
information.  Once I have my own place and a dedicated computer room, I'd like
to get a few books on things like sed and awk because I know how terribly
handy they are.

I know sed and awk could do it.  I hear you on the sleep.  I am getting eight
hours of sleep but still feeling worse than I did when I went to bed
earlier...

Later,
