place when I do the following
>str5 = 'aaa bbb\r\n ccc ddd\r\n eee fff''aaa bbb\r\n ccc ddd\r\n eee fff'
re5=re.compile('aaa.*(ddd|fff)',re.S);
re5.search(str5).group(0)
>re5.search(str5).group(1)'fff'
I am trying to find the substring starting with 'aaa', and ending with
ddd OR fff. If ddd is found shouldnt the search stop? Shouldn't
re5.search(str5).group(0) return 'aaa bbb\r\n ccc ddd' ?
Thanks
