For more sophisticated functionality use the re module or a specialised
parser.
Just a quick note here, "specialised parser" might sound like something
that's hard to write. It's not.
Good point. I meant one of the many existing parsing packages for
specific purposes such as XML/HTML, csv, configfile etc - or pyparsing
for more general purpose work. I did not mean to write a specialised parser
from scratch, although occasionally that may be needed but usually not.
