There are several regular expressions that we reuse a lot, and have rewritten several different places. It might be a good idea to move all the regular expressions to a single file (like shinymud/lib/regex.py) that uses re.compile to compile all of the regular expressions ahead of time, and maybe even some functions that return either False (if no matches) or a dictionary (if matches).
This way all of the different places that use the same expression can have it written in a single place, and if it is compiled with re.compile it is faster, and easier to reuse.
