If you know that your registry has useless information in it and want to remove entries, this recipe was provide you with a simple way of accomplishing such a purpose. After entering strings to match and causing an EOF, the program will search for what you entered, and is designed to automatically delete what was requested. This is committed for archival to be run under Python 2.5 or later versions.

Thanks for the notice. Labeling a recipe as being

is probably sufficient. Hopefully, people are moving to Python 3.
