i know it's a software that you will have to pay for,
but i guess that you should perhaps take a look
at Ultra Edit. It's definitively a must have when you are
working with text files and doing such kind of
things. It has a nice lot of possibilities
(column sorting, replace using some 'arcane' formula
that let you 'replace' text or add part in very interesting ways.)
I used it a lot as a programmer, and i use it now at home
and i would not be far if i said that i have it open at least once
a day.
Among other things you can also 'program' some 'keywords'
to have it highlights informations the way you want them
it can be helpfull when working on a huge file like the different
*.ini we have in il2.
I know it's not a free software, but definitively (in my opinion)
a must have for everyone doing that kind of works with text
files.

PS : if i remember right i use it since 1998-1999, over 10 years
and it realy kept giving me what i was needing when working
with text files.
