I’m an emacs partisan.  I’d grab Aquamacs, suck in the file, and then (spaces 
shown only to separate commands, do not type them):

^X ( ^S^@ CR BS ^X ) ESC 99999 ^X E                    (define macro: search 
for NUL, backspace to remove it, end macro; do the macro 99999 times)
^X ^S CR                                                                (save 
the file)
