Query Web search engines.
This module works by filtering the HTML returned by the search engine and thus tends to break when
search engines modify their HTML output.
Public domain, Connelly Barnes 2005-2007. Compatible with Python 2.3-2.5.

explanation, precautions, and legal disclaimers.

search results, with %(q)s for the query string and %(n)s for the

page "number:"

begin will be used in the search results page. If end is not None,
then only text before the first occurrence of end will be used.

three named groups: 'name', 'url', and 'desc'. These correspond to
the name, URL and description of each search result. The regex is
applied in re.DOTALL mode.

def description():
"""
Full explanation and precautions for web_search module.
The search functions in this module follow a common interface::
search(query, max_results=10, blocking=True) =>
iterator of (name, url, description) search results.
Here query is the query string, max_results gives the maximum number
of search results, and the items in the returned iterator are string
3-tuples containing the Website name, URL, and description for each
search result.
If blocking=False, then an iterator is returned which does not block
execution: the iterator yields None when the next search result is
not yet available (a background thread is created).
Supported search engines are 'ask', 'dmoz', 'excite', 'google', 'msn',
'yahoo'. This module is not associated with or endorsed by any of
these search engine corporations.
Be warned that if searches are made too frequently, or max_results is
large and you enumerate all search results, then you will be a drain
on the search engine's bandwidth, and the search engine organization
may respond by banning your IP address or IP address range.
