There are many different select-like things around now (select, poll, epoll, kqueue -- are there others?) and random combinations of them seem to be available on any given platform. This makes writing platform-independent code that needs select-like functionality very awkward. Rather than adding yet another platform-dependent module, I'd like to see a unified Python interface in the stdlib that uses whichever is the best one available. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
