Your description is too vague to really get a good answer. In general, if you're doing complex string manipulation, you'll use a full-fledged programming language with regex support, like Python, Perl or Awk, possibly piped into each other and/or other tools like Sed or Cut. I can't be more specific than that without a more specific description where you describe the actual data and criteria.

Are you starting with the first or second example? Why do the prefix numbers change between examples? How do you tell text and title/subtitle apart?

Yes it was. But as far as I remember, they tried to migrate to Windows and gave up?

That's shitty. I'm sorry your parents (both real and step) were such terrible people. Hopefully you did okay despite their best efforts.

That's the answer right there. They're voting for her because they like that she's lining her own pockets.

In my country it meant I was able to vote, buy alcohol and get a driver's license. I was never interested in alcohol, but I did get a driver's license a few months later. I didn't feel that different, but my parents liked that I could ship stuff around for them. I indulged in some voting, too.

I'd be surprised if there aren't candidates more hateful and racist on the primary ballot.

Grocery store apples in Seattle are actually pretty good, and the above statement still holds true.

I don't know this bill specifically, but bills have a lot of weird unrelated shit tacked onto them. Sometimes that stuff is state-specific stuff. There have been lots of cases where senators have opposed a bill but changed their tune after something specifically for their state was added. They can then brag about these wins during primaries.

Oddly, they designed a brand new one, instead of just using the 1959 version.

I don't know the situation in Maine, but being a deciding vote usually means you get a lot of concessions. It's quite possible Maine residents get what they want from her via these concessions.
