Well, first, no need start another thread on basically the same topic.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? In the other thread, after someone posted a solution for your question, you added another kink to the issue. You need to explain the whole thing; otherwise, if you keep saying "oh this doesn't work because I have to do this also", I don't think you are going to get much help.

Now, being sed or perl, I think you are looking at the wrong side of the problem. Neither sed or perl are removing anything from the data. I think that the problem is with your usage of netcat.

To start, why are you trying to create a TCP connection to your localhost? That's what you are doing when you issue nc 127.0.0.1 5001. That makes no sense. You are already there.

So, explain exaclty what you are trying to do, from beginning to end.
