/**
 * This will completely re-write a file, be careful.
 * 
 * Simple Usage:
 *
 * modifyFile("C:\whatever\whatever.txt") {
 *   if(it.contains("soil"))
 *      return null  // remove dirty word
 *   else
 *      return it
 * }
 *
 * The closure must return the line passed in to keep it in the file or alter it, any alteration
 * will be written in its place.
 *
 * To delete an entire line instead of changing it, return null
 * To add more lines after a given line return: it + "\n" + moreLines
 *
 * Notice that you add "\n" before your additional lines and not after the last
 * one because this method will normally add one for you.
