IMO, this solution is on the right track.
FWIW, the StringIO wrapper is unnecessary.

sorry, i didn't read all your post.

using the re module I find this to probably be the easiest but in no
way is this gospel :)
import re
rex = re.compile(r'(".*?"|\S)')
sub = 'a b c "d e"'
res = [x for x in re.split(rex, sub) if not x.iss
import re
re.findall('\".*\"|\S+', raw_input())

Is there some easy way to split a line, keeping together double-quoted
strings?
I'm thinking of
'a b c "d e"' --> ['a','b','c','d e']
. I'd also like
'a b c "d \" e"' --> ['a','b','c','d " e']
which omits any s.split('"')-based construct that I could come up with.
Thank you,
