Thanks for the pointer; I'll check it out.

It works though... now that I've fixed up all my ugly stuff, and a
dumb logic error or two.

I didn't think about empty comments/settings... fixed now.
It also seemed simpler to handle surrounding spaces after the match
was found.
New version of the problematic part:
<code>
self.contents = []
content = {}
# Get the content in each line
for line in lines:
for name in patterns:
# Match each pattern to the current line
match = patterns[name].search(line)
if match:
content[name] = match.group(0).strip()
self.contents.append(content)
content = {}
</code>
