Maybe you are using non-greedy regexps - i. e. something like 'a*?'. It is a known bug that they cause the above RuntimeError when the match exceeds about 16k. You might want to use the old python 1.52 regexps: #import re # comment out this line - new regexp (implicitly loads "sre" I think) import pre # the python 1.5 implementation of regexp re = pre # Avoids the need of changing existing code Gruß Markus _______________________________________________ ActivePython mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/activepython
