Unless you
hi gabriel,
i am utilizing file names and their paths which are written to a file
on a singe line.
now if i use records that would be wasting too much space as there is
no limit on the no. of characters (at max) in the path.
next best approach i can think of is reading the file in memory
editing it
nick,
i just wanted to ask for time constrained applications like searching
won't sqlite be a expensive approach.
i mean searching and editing o the files is less expensive by the time
taken .
so i need an approach which will allow me writing randomly to a line
in file without using a database
On M
Rohit,
Consider using an SQLite database. It comes with Python 2.5 and
higher. SQLite will do a nice job keeping track of the index. You can
easily find the line you need with a SQL query and your can write to
it as well. When you have a file and you write to one line of the
file, all of the rest

hi,
i am developing a desktop search.For the index of the files i have
developed an algorithm with which
i should be able to read and write to a line if i know its line
number.
i can read a specified line by using the module linecache
but i am struck as to how to implement writing to the n(th) lin
