It worked for me, since we just want to change the string in between " and ". This statement actually means to make a change after the first " that you encounter Tell Rueen to see if this is what he meant About “key changing problem”
I think that the problem can be solved like this for DTD files:

re.sub(r’(“.*)([Cc])olor’, r’\1\2olour’, instring)

This changes just the value of an entity not the key.

For instance, if we open the same file with VIm editor we can type this: %s/\t\ / That is subsitute every tab for 3 blanks spaces. Be aware that the command might be totally correct (I'm not sure about the slashes) Vince, the indentation problem can be fixed by running a regular expression substitution.

It gets pretty crazy with the amount of information being passed around in seperate mails. Even though I do agree with the above poster about making email filters, I still think it shouldn't be the user making things work. Yes, I totally agree with you.

For instance, make two folders (labels) "relevant Bugzilla activity" and "Bugzilla noise". I haven't tried it myself -- only sender based filtering -- but it sure looks like you can do full-text search (i.e. anything in the body with 'python' into 'python' folder).

I'm going to try another lab from the wiki, but I honestly don't know where to find the hours for everything dude, I’m in the same boat as you are;
