Code:
IFS=":"
while read line;do
set $line
tmp=`echo ${1##*/}`
tmp=`echo ${tmp%%.*}`
tmp1=`echo ${2#+}`
echo $tmp":"$tmp1
done < yourfile


perl:
Code:
open $fh,"<","yourfile";
while(<$fh>){
	s/^(?:[^:]*\/)([^:.]*)(?:\..*:\+*)(.*)/$1:$2/;
	print;
}

if you have Python and can use it, here's an alternative:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
for line in open("file"):
    line=line.strip().split(":")  
    line[1] =line[1].replace("+","")   
    print "%s:%s"%(os.path.split(line[0])[-1].split(".")[0],':'.join(line[1:]))

output:
Code:
# ./test.py
files:ABC::::::::
files:def::::::::
files:ghi::::::::
files:jkl::::::::
