[Pyparsing] Stumbling at the first step

[Norbert K. <Nor...@pr...>]

Hello all,
I have a presumably trivial problem which vexes me nonetheless:

I try:
 from pyparsing import *
 Word( alphas ).parseString("G09 " )

and get 
 (['G'], {})

instead of
 ['G09']

I really do not understand this and I am sure that I miss something obvios.
The version of pyparsing is the newest Windows install.

Thanks for listening

Norbert
