I know, it's just parsing text, but isn't text slice pretty much a
one-liner anyway?
import re import maya.cmds as mc
print
re.search('serialnumber\t*(?P<serialnumber>[0-9-]*)\n',mc.license(info=True)).group('serialnumber')
It's not as clean as say, mc.license(serial=True), and I wouldn't write
it out like that because it's awful to read, but it doesn't strike me as
a particularly hairy task. You could even just patch in startup code in
user.py to add the parse of the serial number etc into the os.environ
dictionary so you could treat it like a system variable?
