Example Of Using Pyqt (qt4) And Python

Here is a quick project I whipped up for retrieving the world status and highscore status from a MMORPG called "Runescape".

If you would like me to explain the script a bit more for your help, feel free to post any questions you have here.

Nice one Jeyrad

I writen one awhile back in php, just havn't added a function to compare users at the moment.
Right now is just throws out an array, later it will be formatted.
