I am trying to test if a line contains a string of text that contains an open square bracket, but when I use
headerrx = re.compile('^[Event ') it throws an error:
/filter_pgn.py:22: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '[' headerrx = re.compile('^[Event ') re.error: unterminated character set at position 1 Any idea what I’m doing wrong? The text I’m trying to parse will look like:
[Event “name of event”]
