I can't give you the exact syntax, but:
/* pseudocode */
open file1 for read mode;
open ~file1 for write mode;
readln (file1,string);
string replace (string, string-to-delete, '');
writeln (~file1,string);
close file1;
close ~file1;
mv (~file1 file1);
/* end */
I know, I know ...
this looks more like Pascal than java.
