Of course you may. It would be better, though, if you had opened a new thread
instead of pretending to reply to an old one.

The Python interpreter has a built-in "help" function. You can use it with
"bound methods" -- methods belonging to objects; thus,
$ python
Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Nov 19 2009, 19:46:21)
[GCC 4.3.4] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import re
>>> pat = re.compile('.')
>>> help(pat.search)
Will show you
search(...)
search(string[, pos[, endpos]]) --> match object or None.
Scan through string looking for a match, and return a corresponding
MatchObject instance. Return None if no position in the string matches.
That is, you can specify a starting point right after the searched string, as
a second parameter to search().
In case you read the help and find it to terse, you should refer to the
documentation at http://docs.python.org/library/re.html#re.RegexObject.search
Hope this helps,
Shai.
