syntax incorrect with regex

[sam]

Hi,

What is the correct syntax of declaring a regex syntax in Python 2.3?
I got the following error:

# python2.3 test.py
  File "test.py", line 10
    macros_parser = re.compile (r""" (\s+)=\"(\s+)\"$ """,re.VERBOS)
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Thanks
sam
