I can't search for a particular string, since they're all very similar, but I'd like something simple to chop out the first 4 lines in a file.

They're all variable length too. I've had a a think about perl, and it all seems harder than I thought, but I'd like to do it in Perl, AWK or a shell command if possible.

Does anybody have a simple way of doing this?
