[Tutor] Match on current line and next line. Possible?

[Pierre Barbier de Reuille]

MMmh ... one way to do that :

Py> file_content = open('/somefile', 'r').readlines()
Py> next_file_content = iter(file_content)
Py> next_file_content.next()
Py> for (line, next_line) in izip(file_content, next_file_content):
Py>         match_one = re.search('^Python', line)
Py>         match_two = re.search('^\tBLAH', line)
Py>         if match_one and nextline == match_two:
Py>                do_something()
