How about `sed` the "stream editor" ? and `cut` ?
locate .htm \
| xargs grep -h www.dribble.net \
| cut -f2 '-d<' \
| sed -e 's/dribble.net/blither.org/' \
> myfile.out
How (and whether) you use cut would depend on your html coding
standards, of course...
Of course, with 'grep -h ...' you'll never know which files the
original text sprung from. But you probably know that.
