[ale] Sed equivalent for vi command

[Dow Hurst]

Thanks so much for the examples, specific and general.  I really wanted 
to script a solution for deleting specific groups of lines out of a 
file.  I wanted to make this a general solution for a manual procedure 
everyone in our research group has had to do.  This is the way to go. 
 It is nice to have help like this.
