Hello,
I am looking for python code useful to process
tables that are in ASCII text. The code must
determine where are the columns (fields).
Concerned tables for my application are various,
but their columns are not very complicated
to locate for a human, because even
when ignoring the semantic of words,
our eyes see vertical alignments
Here is a sample table (must be viewed
with fixed-width font to see alignments):
=================================
44544 ipod apple black 102
GFGFHHF-12 unknown thing bizar brick mortar tbc
45fjk do not know + is less biac
disk seagate 250GB 130
5G_gff tbd tbd
gjgh88hgg media record a and b 12
hjj foo bar hop zip
hg uy oi hj uuu ii a qqq ccc v ZZZ Ughj
qdsd zert nope nope
=================================
I want the python code that builds a representation
of this table (for exemple a list of lists, where each list
represents a table line, each element of the list
being a field value).
Any hints?
thanks
