Thank you. I shall do the same below. Unfortunately I don't have high
hopes that any progress will be made on this thread -- Charles Benoit
hasn't made a single reply since his original post.

1) You haven't asked a question.

2) You posted your code twice. That makes it look a lot harder and
longer than it really is.

3) Give us a *minimal* reproducible test case. I currently just get:

%~> python2 /tmp/nd.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/nd.py", line 12, in <module>
    finale_line2=finale_line
NameError: name 'finale_line' is not defined

This isn't the only problem.

In other words, you've given us an unsolvable problem. Try again.
