This is another time waster. But now at least I know how a TAGS file is constructed, and I know that re is a lot slower than regex.

I'm not sure that this patch is worth it -- it seems backwards to analyse Python programs with re -- why not simply use the parser module if we really want this?

SRE should be faster again, right?

The parser module is a very big gun for this simple app -- look at it as an example for text processing (and documentation for TAGS files :-).

I say go for it.
