There are probably quite a few ways to do this, but '(?<!^)PATTERN' has the advantage of explicitly describing what you're trying to do. For instance: >>> pattern = re.compile(r"(?<!^)\b\w+\b") >>> re.findall(pattern, "this is some text") ['is', 'some', 'text'] -[]z. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
