Hi folks, Sometimes, when I do an os.popen*(), the process executed by the command hangs, and the script stops forever on the readline()/ readlines() calls. I found that I can use select, but I'm thinking... if, after a sellect() call returns, the stdout (for example) has more than one line? or if it has just some characters, no newline, and the process just hangs?
I just want a readline(timeout) and readlines(timeout) like functions. Do I need to create my owns or there're already implemented? Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
