I disagree, I think actually Perl is a better answer.  Using grep, sed, 
tr, etc. on Windows is error-prone anyway, because of the shell 
difference.  Perl is very complete as a parsing solution, personnally 
that's what I would prefer, and it's more scalable, since when you want 
to do more, you can copy your solution in a script and expand it.  Using 
a python script makes a lot of sense also, as people have pointed 
two-lines solutions.
