So instead of providing one line of input, that represents your real input, you'd rather attempt to describe it using English?

So what we , random strangers, can interpret your English the way you do, provided you didn't omit anything, and then construct a $line correctly? Both how it looks before the change you want to make, and after?

So that we can then craft a regular expression, that you can use to make the substitution you're attempting?

But you yourself said you're not an native English speaker, so we'd be guessing the whole time.

You've managed to provide input in all these previous postings of yours XML tag closing, XML tag closing, string concatenation, split function using multiple delimiters

Do you want help or not?
