Michael,

This looks like a great script, and one that I would use frequently. As 
far as the code goes, I could see tightening up the regex in line 40 to 
use [^"]* instead of .*, since if you had more than one tag with 
attributes on the same line, it would greedily take more than you 
wanted. I look forward to seeing this one in the main distribution!
