In my tex file I have a bunch of commands of the form bla{ ... }, where the ... may span several lines. These commands bla{ ... } contain some notes for myself, and should be removed from the tex file before sending it to my publisher. Note that I am supposed to send the tex file, not the pdf, so I cannot simply redefine the bla macro to an empty macro. Any thoughts on how to do this as quickly as possible with a linux terminal command? (Or any other trick)

So, what you want is to delete everything frombla{to}? The problem is that you have to take care of nested braces, for example,bla{foo textit{faa}}. You can not delete until first}.

yes, even if there are new lines, and yes the nested braces are the one of the issues (also new lines).

So, maybe it is better to ask on another SE site, maybe StackOverflow, and ask how to manipulate text files and strings.
