1) 'Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular expressions." Now they have two problems.' --Jamie Zawinski, comp.emacs.xemacs, 8/1997 2) If you really want to learn regexes, get a copy of _Mastering Regular Expressions_ by Friedl (either 2nd or 3rd edition) -- Aahz (a...@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "...string iteration isn't about treating strings as sequences of strings, it's about treating strings as sequences of characters. The fact that characters are also strings is the reason we have problems, but characters are strings for other good reasons." --Aahz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
