For implementing the commandline interface, have a look at the getopt
module.

If you store your data in a flat text file, you might use string.find()
or the re module to do the searching. The re module can search case
insensitive and is more versatile.

But maybe you want let your script create some SQL statements and use
the pysqlite module to store and search the data.

Kind regards,
