I have a need to evaluate the following lines such that the first regexp
rule consumes or matches all but the last line of the strings shown
below:
 
    asdd    3
    jhiuya   5
    as5ads    6
Total number of things above 3

	 
	The rule used for the first three lines is 
	                (\S+)\s+(\d+)
	and for the last line 
	                (Total number of things above)\s+(\d+)
	 

The problem I have is the first rule also is satisfied by the last line
(i.e asdd 3, jhiuya  5, as5ads   6, above 3). This causes problems in my
application. To resolve this I'd like to write a regexp that says match
one set of Ares' but not another, within a single regexp.
