gp-export exports and imports objects to s-exps, and it is designed to be very
configurable and have a lot of hooks, so maybe you don't need to use an
external text-processing tool. Currently there is a limit that the history of
exported objects are kept in memory, so it might not work for extremely big
databases. I will fix it when I get to this limit myself, until then
it is on the todo list.
If you want any other features please let me know.
