Python regular expression screen scrub
Hi

I am trying to write a python script that executes a command to screen scrub results below
I will appreciate it very much if you can help me with a python script that can
pick the percentage USAGE in the second column based on the supplied queue number in the first column

Code:
import re
content = """NUMBER of Queues = 5
SYSTEM Treshold = 80%
  ==================================================================

QUEUE   USAGE   TOTAL book1   book2

------------------------------------------------------------------

0001 18%   822   481    98  

0002 16%   345   765    88  

0003 10%   400   300   166  

0004 15%   994   322    177  

0005 17%   348   297    131  

---------------------------------------------------------- """

m = re.match("(0001)/(\d{%})", content)           
if m:
    print m.group(0)      
    print m.group(1)

When i run this from the command prompt nothing shows up

I was able to get this screen scrub done using php preg_match_all
but i want to do the same with the re module in python.

Please suggestions and help will be very much appreciated

Thanks

isympy

isympy(1)																 isympy(1)

NAME

       isympy - interactive shell for SymPy

SYNOPSIS

       isympy [-c | --console]
       isympy [ {-h | --help} | {-v | --version} ]

DESCRIPTION

       isympy  is  a  Python shell for SymPy. It is just a normal python shell (ipython shell if you have the ipython package installed) that exe-
       cutes the following commands so that you don't have to:

       >>> from __future__ import division
       >>> from sympy import *
       >>> x, y, z = symbols("xyz")
       >>> k, m, n = symbols("kmn", integer=True)

       So starting isympy is equivalent to starting python (or ipython) and executing the above commands by hand. It  is  intended  for  easy  and
       quick  experimentation  with  SymPy. For more complicated programs, it is recommended to write a script and import things explicitly (using
       the "from sympy import sin, log, Symbol, ..." idiom).

OPTIONS

       -c shell, --console=shell
	      Use the specified shell (python or ipython) as console backend instead of the default one (ipython if present or python otherwise).

	      Example: isympy -c python

FILES

       ${HOME}/.sympy-history
	      Saves the history of commands when using the python shell as backend.

BUGS

       The upstreams BTS can be found at <http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/list> Please report all bugs that you find  in	there,	this  will
       help improve the overall quality of SymPy.
