Extracting labels from one labelfile to another

Recently I've had an assignment where we needed to "split up" a label file. The assignment was to: * read thorugh a label file. * If any labels were encountered with a number bigger then N these should be written to a new label file AND any references to these labels should be replaced in the code. So I exported all adjustments/code made to an .xpo file, and I took a copy of the label file. Then I wrote a class that did the "splitting up" of the label file and the search/replace of labels in the code (.xpo file). This made for use of an other entry in this blog, namely extracting text from a label, and for some interesting use of the TextBuffer object for search/replace. Here you can download the code. Use at own risk !!!
