Hi all

I know this is not numpy related but a colleague insists the following 
is supposed to work. But it doesn't:

==
line_left = './erfo/restart.ST010.EN0001-EN0090.YYYYMMDDhh'
enafix = 'ST000.EN0001-EN0092'
line_left = line_left.replace('STYYY.ENXXXX-ENXXXX', enafix)
print 'line_left',line_left
==

[right answer would be: ./erfo/restart.ST000.EN0001-EN0092.YYYYMMDDhh' ]

I think it works in Fortran but not in Python. What would be the easiest 
way to replacing this kind of pattern in a variable lenght string?


Thanks,
Siegfried
