From b7878d09e5d360da4eda65cdf6f51376c234af3d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "Andrew M. Kuchling" <amk@amk.ca>
Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 17:17:56 +0000
Subject: Modernize the code a bit:    use re module    use .split() string
 method

Doesn't use 'for line in sys.stdin'; that ends up changing its interactive
behaviour.
