You don't have to start from scratch. You don't to do anything other than learn
to use anamnesis. I use anamnesis as my clipboard manager. I you can easily
tell to get which ever one you want (i.e. the thousandth item).

Dear list members,
I cannot figure out why my regular expression does not work as I expect it to:

Now that MRAB has shown me the follies of my ways I would
like to learn how to properly write the regular expression I
need.
This part:

This seems to contradict the "nesting" requirement, but the
nesting restriction "earlier parsing passes go inside" makes
it possible.

Would a simple regex work?
I mean:

so options isn't '.*', but more like '(:?[^:]+)*' (Figuring out what
additional restriction this imposes

Hi all,
I'm new to Python, but not to programming.
As a teaching exercise, I am converting a bunch of bash shell
scripts to Python, so that they can be run on all three OS-es
(Linux, Windows, MacOS).
The scripts in questions make extensive use of Linux "zenity"
dialogs.
Is there an equivalent f
