Sorry, this is going to come off harsh. I really mean it with love
though.

God save me from people that are so API phobic that believe every solution
is to generate a spool file, copy it to disk, and analyze that!
Really, parsing out a substring that can shift positions in the line based
on how long the job name and/or user are, or what version of the OS you
are running, or... is easier than learning something new?
