I'm using the Tornado framework (Python). I have the sluggable URLs working. But I have 3 different entries in the URL dispatcher. I was wondering if someone could help me transform it into one line.

This is what I have:

(r"/post/([0-9]+)/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+", SpotHandler),
(r"/post/([0-9]+)/", SpotHandler),
(r"/post/([0-9]+)", SpotHandler),

I want it so that the following URLs all go to the same place.
