NAME
       remove_brackets - remove delimiters from text

SYNOPSIS
       remove_brackets delimiter1 delimiter2

DESCRIPTION
       remove_brackets	is  a  filter that removes the specified delimiters from the beginning/end of the text sent through it. It reads text from
       stdin and writes the result to stdout. The delimiters can be arbitrary characters, but things like { }, ( ),  etc.  are	most  common.  The
       delimiters are removed only if both of them match.

       Please note that remove_brackets is intended mainly to be run from XView's text menu. It is used in the default text_extras_menu.
