The answers to the following questions would help:

- when you type "\s" are those the literal characters in the file, or
are you using that as shorthand for "space" or "a space or a tab"?

- if the number of "\s"s (as defined by answering the previous
question) varies per line, should the indentation of the block that
follows correspond to the number of "\s"s?

- is the number of lines of data always three? (BAR1, BAR2,
END_OF_BLOCK) or does that vary too?

With those answers, it should be possible to craft an automated
solutions.
