I did look into this but struggling a little with the implementation, currently
trying to do something like this which doesn't work:
fillInfo = {}
p = re.compile('PATTERN')
with (open(path,'r')) as f:
for row in f:
m = p.search(row)
if m == None:
continue
else:
fillInfo[m.group(5)] =
OrderedDict(m.group(1),m.group(2),m.group(3),m.group(4),m.group(6))
