Thank you for your replies, it's much obvious now. I know more what I can and can't do with the re module. But is it possible to search for more than one string in the same line?
bv. I want to replace the <python> with " " </python> with "\n" and every thing that's not between the two python tags must begin with "\nprint \"\"\"" and end with "\"\"\"\n"? Or do I need more than one call? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
