Ah, you are probably not that familiar with the emacs info system, yet. 
(You really should learn how to use it properly if you want to stick to
emacs. It is really worth getting accustomed to it!)

So, in case you did not notice:

[ (info "(emacs)Keyboard Macros") ] 

  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Use mouse on this ;).

And yes, you can use awk, pipes, regexes etc. There are lots of ways.

But, as you are no "coder" and an emacs beginner, I'd really say: Go for
the Keyboard Macros [F3+F4 or C-x ( and C-x )]. They will be usefull
again and again.
