If the syntax really is close to XML, would it be all that difficult to convert it to proper XML? Then you have nice libraries like ElementTree to use for parsing.
Possibly, but I would still need the same search algorithms to find the opening tag for the field, then find and replace the next line end with a matching closing tag. So it seems to me that the starting point is the same, and then it's my choice to either process the substrings myself or employ something like ElementTree.
