Hi,
It's really hard to say if PLY could be used for this. For best results, PLY assumes that there is some kind of regular structure on the text being parsed (e.g., can be described by a formal grammar). Normally, this is input such as that found in a programming language. However, others have adapted PLY to parse such things as chemical formulas. You might also be able to use PLY in parts of the parsing in conjunction with other techniques. For example, using other code to break down the input into specific chunks and using PLY to parse the contents of those chunks.
Admittedly, this isn't much of an answer. However, if you do you PLY and find that it works for this, I'd certainly be interested to know more.
Cheers,
Dave
