My first suggestion would be to use Cygwin, since you can install the standard Unix "sed" under Windows that way. But you say that's not an option. Not sure why, since that's clearly the easiest way to go. Barring that, maybe you can use Perl or the Java RegEx packages. Beyond that, I dunno. Maybe try googling around and see if, by some chance, someone wrote a version of "sed" for Java.
