Style nit: I'd ditch the "./" here.

Done.

Maybe a little cleaner to assign the file to a local var?

[Bob Nystrom, 2012/12/20 02:04:15]

Done.

Slightly cleaner to do "if (endBlock.hasMatch(line))", since you never use any
of the match metadata.

[Bob Nystrom, 2012/12/20 02:04:15]

Done.

This will leave trailing whitespace if `match[1]` is empty.

[Bob Nystrom, 2012/12/20 02:04:15]

Done.

Unused function.
