Does anyone have a handler kicking around that will remove every instance of
a substring from a string?
For example:
"Gnarlodious.util:Workshop.util:Forth.util:Mops.util:MopsManual.util:"

Will morph into:
"Gnarlodious:Workshop:Forth:Mops:MopsManual:"

with removing substring ".util"

Several, but you might just want...

set t to "Gnarlodious.util:Workshop.util:Forth.util:Mops.util:MopsManual.util:"

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ".util"
set {t, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {text items of t, ""}
set t to t as string
-->"Gnarlodious:Workshop:Forth:Mops:MopsManual:"
