Hi Wouter,
I tried this kinda thing for the regex strings:
regex =
re.compile('\\t+([-+]?\d+\.?\d*)\\t+([-+]?\d+\.?\d*)\\t+([-+]?\d+\.?\d*)\\t+([-+]?\d+\.?\d*)\\t+')

Didn't help (though testing the string in pythonregex.com does show
results).

If I did it wrong I'd love to know. Any other ideas welcome too.

Thanks!
Ron Ganbar
