To read from a file without waiting longer than a specified time, you need to use the POSIX 'select' system call, which you can find at syscall.Select. (It was the inspiration for the Go select statement, but whereas Go's select multiplexes channels, POSIX's select multiplexes files.) The select system call is quite a pain to use in Go; you might want to take a look at https://github.com/creack/goselect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
