Not a homework, but a "workwork" :-) I'm writing a script to parse logfiles, and I have began to study python for this (bash was too much slow). When i'll finishi it, I'll post a link here if someone think that could be helpful. > require a negative look-behind assertion of variable length--not > possible in python regex.

I was asking that cause in the code i wrote this: for y in range(0, len(skip_lst) ): if (re.search(skip_lst[y], line)): skip=1 break In skip_lst there are the regexp and strings (on one line) to match with "line". But rarely the rules to be matched need to have also a logical And. What could be the solution? Add another array with a "not" regexp? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
