Hello, I really like the finditer() method of the re module. I'm having difficulty at the moment, however, because finditer() still creates a callable-iterator oject, even when no match is found. This is undesirable in cases where I would like to circumvent execution of code meant to parse out data from my finditer() object.
Take a look at itertools.tee
Bleh - I hit send instead of delete. Tee probably doesn't do what you want. Steve's cookbook recipe is likely a better option.
Actually, there's an equally valid solution with tee too -- check Peter Otten's comments at the bottom of the recipe.
