Hi,
My string is a multi line string that contains "filename
<filename>\n" and "host <host>\n" entries among other things.
For example: s = """ filename X
host hostname1
blah...
host hostname2
blah...
filename Y
host hostname3
"""
Given a host name, I would like to get its filename (The closest
filename reading backwards from the host line). I could read each line
until I hit the host name, but I am looking for an RE that will do job.
The answer should be "Y" for host hostname3 and "X" for either host
hostname1 or hostname2.
Thanks in advance.
