I'd try:
matches = []
File.open(file,'r'){|f|
matches = f.read.scan(/news\./) #read all file contents and scan for
matches
} #file is automatically closed on block exit
#do something with matches...

But you need a correct RegExp, /news\./ will match 'news.' and the
'xxx.yyy' will not be included in the results

i got :
0

no prob for me and the regexp

put in a file news.txt:
news.test.com
news.test1.com

someone gave me a solution :
egrep -i -o --binary-files=text -e 'news\.\w+\.\w+' \
/Users/yvon/MacSOUP_eclipse/eclipse/..namedfork/rsrc
___the_magic_______________________^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

the file being :
/Users/yvon/MacSOUP_eclipse/eclipse

that's something specific to MacOS X...

open('test.txt').read.scan(/azer\.tyui\.op/) {|c| print c,"\n"}
# I have tried it with a 19 943 385 bytes test.txt...
