Hi, I'd like to read several strings by using 'input'. These strings are separated by white space but I'd like to allow for some quoting, e.g.
"Guido van" Rossum should be split into 2 strings only Now, a simple split doesn't work since it splits the quoted text as well. Is there a simple way to do so? It would be nice if it could handle embedded quotes which are escaped by a backslash, too. Is there something simpler then a sophisticated regular expression or even a parser? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
