Note: If you decide your module should have one of those button links you see at the top right of a bunch of pages in Drupal's administration, you *don't even need to know* that they are called "Action Links" and find a tutorial on making them. You can just go look in the code of a module you know has them, grep for the label, and steal the code around it.

Note: Grep. Even when i am fully using an IDE for everything else, i grep in the regular command line when looking for text in a file. This habit is probably fueled more by failing to tell the IDE to index Drupal core and contrib modules more than anything else.
