Comment:

I need to read a specific part of an input file and assign the data as variables until it reaches the "END". So, for captain coke, I need rum, 2, coke, and 4 as seperate variables.
I realize that I should probably be doing this in MySQL or other DB, but I am trying to keep from getting extremely overwhelmed at this point.
0001 captain coke
rum 2
coke 4
END
0002 dirty martini
vodka 3
olive_juice .25
vermouth .25
END
0003 vodka sour
vodka 2
sour 4
END
