Hi guys,

This might be a little off the topic, but all linux guys have some 
scripting quality and i feel very stupid for not knowing how to do this, 
but thats why there is questions, so excuse my stupidity.
im trying to figure out how to write a little command line interface for 
my bind server as there is no opensource one available or can't find 
besides webmin

my /etc/named.conf file has 1000's of entries inside it in this kinda format

zone  "megasurf.com" {
        type master;
        allow-transfer { 206.25.193.131; localhost; };
        file "megasurf.com";

};

zone  "meryl-hefer.com" {
        type master;
        allow-transfer { 206.25.193.131; localhost; };
        file "meryl-hefer.com";

};

zone  "merylhefer.com" {
        type master;
        allow-transfer { 206.25.193.131; localhost; };
        file "merylhefer.com";


where must is start if i would like to search and delete say 
megasurf.com and  the 2 lines that work with it, i already have scripts 
to add new domains by using a template file and just append to the file, 
but to delete seems very difficly as i tried regex to delete the whole 
string, but doesnt work

im not sure how i should start having a look into this,

Thanks

Jandre
