Open the mesh in UVMapper. Select by material, and choose all the materials you want to amalgamate. Then do assign to material, choose a new or existing name, and save. If you do the text hacking,the areas from which you remove the usemtl lines will adopt the material from the previous section. That may be what you want, or it may not. The only true way to have no materials at all assigned to part of a model is to have those facet lines at the beginning of the block, before any usemtl lines. In that case, Poser would use the default material for those areas.
