sys.stdout is a global - threading issues are inherent in monkeying with it. At
least this approach allows all code that redirects stdout to be easily
serialised:
def redirect_stdout(f, the_lock=Lock()):
locking(the_lock):
save_stdout = sys.stdout
try:
sys.stdout = f
yield
finally:
sys.stdout = save_stdout
Cheers,
Nick.
