You really owe it to yourself to try the PyParsing package, if you have to
do this kind of thing with any frequency.
The syntactic difference between PyParsing and regular expressions is
greater than the syntactic difference between Python and C.

Thank you! That solved my problem.

In a text that contains references to numbers like this: #583 I want to
find them with a regular expression but I'm having problems with the
hash. Hopefully this code explains where I'm stuck:
>>> import re
>>> re.compile(r'\b(\d\d\d)\b').findall('#123 x (#234) or:#456 #6789')
['123', '234', '456'
