New submission from Gareth Gouldstone:
I believe that the SRE_Scanner object should have a .fullmatch() method for
consistency with other re pattern-matching behaviour.
>>> rex = re.compile('([^\\W\\d_]{1,2}[0-9]{1,2}[^\\d\\W_]?)[
>>> \\t]*([0-9][^\\d\\W_]{2})')
>>> rex.scanner('bn20bs')
<_sre.SRE_Scanner object at 0x102006400>
>>> rex.scanner('bn20bs').search()
<_sre.SRE_Match object; span=(0, 6), match='bn20bs'>
>>> rex.scanner('bn20bs').match()
<_sre.SRE_Match object; span=(0, 6), match='bn20bs'>
>>> rex.scanner('bn20bs').fullmatch()
>>> Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: '_sre.SRE_Scanner' object has no attribute 'fullmatch'
