AMK's howto is pointed to by the 3rd paragraph of Section 4.2.1 of the documentation that you are dissing: """ A brief explanation of the format of regular expressions follows. For further information and a gentler presentation, consult the Regular Expression HOWTO, accessible from http://www.python.org/doc/howto/.

I'm glad that you RTFMed, and that it helped you. You should do so more often. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
