Hi. I have a list of actions on a menu in PyQt, one for each different feed I want to display. So I have a Y that sets the active feed to Y, Z sets it to Z, etc. (For a webcomic reading program).

Hi there, I need to search a pretty large text file for a particular string. Whats the best way to go about doing that? Thanks Edit: Should have given more detail, my bad.
