Or, to use some freely-available documentation:

man perlretut
man perlrequick
man perlre

Perl regular expressions are only slightly different than "standard" -- 
and in fact, a lot of times a program that uses regexes will link with 
the perl library.

You can probably get that book online for free. A ton of them are available if you know where to look (i.e. <http://www.it-ebooks.info/>).

As a matter of fact:

also perlreref
and can use pcregrep to play with perl regexes.

pcregrep is cool for multiline matching.

anon@lowtide:~$ cat laa
one
two
one
  two
one
 two
one two
anon@lowtide:~$ pcregrep -M 'one\n  two' laa
one
  two
anon@lowtide:~$

Maybe the stuff below is the part you're missing for web, it'll bring your text file in as an object, then just use it in javascript s I just showed, or tweak the file the way you want in Python on the server ahead of time.

Cuz I figured if you weren't used to doing that for an HTML page I'd give you what it took to get you there so you can display some of your Python processed data in a medium you're going to want to learn more about.

I used the replace() method 11 times. Stuff like this is good regex practice and you definitely do want to know some for dealing with certain kinds of data.

That's why I pointed you to CherryPy, looks like it makes things pretty easy. But the example I just gave you will let you bring a file in via javascript so you can avoid all that here. Just process the file in Python and output it into a xxx.txt file and reference it using what I gave you. Can't hurt to know how to do simple stuff like this without having to deal with a Python backend, right? This will quickly let you marry some of the things you're working on to a medium that serves the widest audience possible. And we all know how you like an audience ;)

You truly long to fuck Snit. You have since before your wife tossed you to the curb for your cheating.

Yeah.  It's powerful stuff, but grisly to write.

python itself has some excellent features that make life easy.  I'm 
really glad I chose to delve into it.  Been using python and SQLite, 
rather than VBA and Access - but with Access it's easy to build nice GUI 
database systems.  That's a lot more trouble in python - not even worth 
doing probably.

My goal is to get some paying python work at some point - maybe db 
stuff, or web development.



> Yes, I sure your wife is glad to have a different name (than 'Snit') moaned at night now ;)

Now you're losing your tenuous grip on reality.

Don't make me query the freshly-built USENET.sqlite - containing all 
cola posts since late Oct 2010 - and find out exactly how many times 
you've said 'people are not as stupid as you need them to be'.

It's a very 'leet db: small, fast (for some searches anyway), normalized 
with no repeating rows, flexible enough to handle any server and any 
newsgroup with aplomb.

As of a couple days ago:
SERVER         eternal-september
GROUP          cola
POSTS          376881
NYMS           3783

I tried to run yours but El Capitan has an issue with the proper loading of 'lxml' for some reason. This is one of the things about Apple, they change things with respect to where files go too often in my opinion.

Did you install lxml?

pip install lxml

Steve "Steven Petruzzellis" Carroll wants to "install" his pip in Snit's ass.

Don't worry, Snit, it won't hurt much. There is a reason his ex-girlfriend used to call him Tater Tot. 

That was seriously her nick name for him. I bet he never says why. :-)

I've tried that and a bunch of things. I'll keep working on it as time allows.

Good grief... even his challenges involve me. Still, pretty cool, I suppose,
that he is focusing on tasks. I do have a task that the EXAMPLE tied to
something dealing with Sandman, but the specific data has nothing to do with
him.

But if Carroll can challenge his obsession with me to be a programming task
involving data I shared directly to COLA I am cool with that. Sure, pull my
text into a database or convert it to HTML. I am fine with that.

Put down your pipe already, crackhead, your goofy "text file" already is a database (albeit a sh*tty one),   that was my original point.

Steve "Steven Petruzzellis" Carroll is a nearly 60 year old guy who is single, broke and has no skills. He blames Snit for his loss of his wife and girlfriend. Steven is jealous of what Snit has and in a narcissistic rage repeatedly works to take it away from him. For over 10 years he has failed at even this. Steve "Steven Petruzzellis" Carroll is an utter failure in life.

Of his online life Steven says

    I've been booted off by past providers before because people
    complain about me and all my bullshit. I don't want to lose my ISP
    *again* but I still need my army of sock puppets so I continually
    search usenet for whatever servers I haven't yet been booted
    from.
    
Some examples where Steven has been booted

X10 Hosting booted Steven for inappropriate activity
http://tinyurl.com/z92qmz4

Comcast booted Steven for inappropriate activity 
http://tinyurl.com/h75nh9l

FreeHostingEU booted Steven for copyright infringement http://devsite.eu.pn

AwardSpace (atwebpages.com) booted Steven for breaking terms of service
http://demsites.atwebpages.com/pokeman

Imgur took down an image for breaking terms of service http://imgur.com/yv2XppE

Had a GigaNews account which was removed for harassing Snit

Stopped posting from his fretwizzen Google account since shortly after I complained. Seems he lost that too.

His wife booted Steven to the curb for cheating on her


    
Only site Steven Petruzzellis has pointed to that is still available
http://www.oldneighborhoodrestaurant.net
http://tinyurl.com/zgby6mp

Made by the Go Daddy Website builder and is utter crap. Later he denied he said he was merely taking credit for someone else's work but Steven is the contact person http://tinyurl.com/hcw6dul http://tinyurl.com/hc7ee9q

He likely went to the Go Daddy Website Builder after he failed to get WordPress installed.

This is why Steve "Steven Petruzzellis" Carroll attacks Snit. 


Steven Petruzzellis was is divorced because his wife caught him screwing another woman.

Snit is married and by all appearances happily so. 
He never complains about his wife in COLA.


Steven Petruzzellis is living on charity of a friend in a single room.

Snit does not live in a mansion or even a high end home but has a house and a yard.


Steven Petruzzellis has two kids but no respect. He repeatedly called Ryan his "little screwup" and refers to his son Steve as a "dick" and worse. He says at least one of them likely hacked his computer and is a "mentally deficient child." He mocks his possible future daughter-in-law as someone who takes too many selfies and is focused only on herself

Snit has two kids (or more) and never speaks poorly of them in public. 
No reason to think they are not a happy family.


Steven Petruzzellis claims to be a stay at home dad who pays thousands of dollars for day care. Steven has no job and no purpose in life. Steven has given up and now seeks a mother-figure to date. 

Snit has his own business doing technical work and also teaches. 
Snit offers a true contribution to society. 
Teachers are truly under appreciated.

Hey, was this actual output, or no (and why do you assume I'd stink up the place)?

Should I give the ol' DFS reply? You know the one: 'No code or it didn't happen!' 

;)

Yes it was actual output.

You /did/ stink up the place - I was there, but you were too drunk to 
remember.   :)

Indeed you should.

from dateutil import parser
print
today = str(datetime.date.today().strftime("%Y%m%d"))
statuslist = ['Carroll stunk up the place','Carroll was on 
fire!','Carroll was drunk','Carroll puked on someone!']
cal = "carroll.html"
tree = html.parse(cal)
gigs = [gig.text_content() for gig in tree.xpath('//td')]
for i in xrange(0,len(gigs),3):
	gigdate=gigs[i]; gigvenue=gigs[i+1]; gigtime=gigs[i+2]
	gigdt = str(parser.parse(gigs[i]).strftime('%Y%m%d'))
	if gigdt > today:
		print "Next gig is %s at %s (%s)" % 
(gigdate.replace(',',''),gigvenue,gigtime)
		break
print
gigdt,gigstatus='',''
print "Date                Venue                    Status"
print 
"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
for i in xrange(0,len(gigs),3):
	gigdate=gigs[i]; gigvenue=gigs[i+1]; gigtime=gigs[i+2]
	gigdt = str(parser.parse(gigs[i]).strftime('%Y%m%d'))
	if gigdt < today:    gigstatus = random.choice(statuslist)
	elif gigdt == today: gigstatus = 'Next gig tonight!'
	else:                gigstatus = 'Upcoming gig!  (' + str(gigtime) + ')'
	print gigdate.ljust(20) + gigvenue.ljust(25) + gigstatus.ljust(1)
print 
"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"




'carroll.html' (line 7) is a file with the HTML/gig data you posted

Somewhere, someone has a video of me falling asleep (for a few seconds) during a guitar solo (that I was taking!) and, reportedly, I came back in perfectly. I was sick as hell that night (shouldn't have been on stage) and took some NyQuil, which helped but made me *really* sleepy. All I remember is slightly banging my head against the wall behind me... which is probably what woke me up.

This'll get it into the DOM:


;(function() {
    'use strict';
    var dateObj, today, row, eventDate, eventTime, eventVenue,
    message = document.getElementById('message'),
    dates = document.querySelectorAll('td:nth-child(1)'),
    links = document.querySelectorAll('td:nth-child(2)'),
    times = document.querySelectorAll('td:nth-child(3)');
    today = new Date().setHours(-1);

    function addClass() {
        for (var i = 0; i < dates.length; i += 1) {
            dateObj = new Date(dates[i].innerHTML);
            dates[i].className = 'date';
            links[i].className = 'link';
            times[i].className = 'time';
            if (today > dateObj) {
                dates[i].parentNode.className = 'past';
            } else if (today < dateObj) {
                dates[i].className += ' future';
            } else {
                dates[i].className = '';
            }
        }
    }

    function addMessage() {
        row = document.querySelector('.future').parentNode;
        row.className += 'today';
        eventDate = row.firstElementChild.innerHTML;
        eventVenue = row.firstElementChild.nextElementSibling.innerHTML;
        eventTime = row.lastElementChild.innerHTML;
        message.innerHTML = 'Next Gig: ' + eventDate + ' - ' + eventVenue + ' - ' + eventTime;
    }
    addClass();
    addMessage();
})();

The request is actually 'Code or it didn't happen'
