I'm no python guru, but isn't that just tuple terminology? Could you not just leave it as is and then loop or whatever over the tuple??
I had not thought of that. However, the four lines are divided by pythons readline function into separate entries in a list. I do not know how to convert the lines into a 'proper' tuple.
This really isn't as simple a problem as you think. You really should be using PyParsing to do it.
You're right. Unfortunately, from the corporate network we don't have pyparsing installed.
However, I was able to work-around the issue and extract the required data and place the results into python defined list. The code is ugly, even by poor programming standards, but it works.
