asked about multi-processing (including myself).
For those of you new to multi-processing, perhaps this
thread may help you. Some things I want to start off

That is, it's part of the coding standard and

"cmd" has _nothing_ to do with Python.

Yes I can't say I really enjoy writing C (at all!)

@Aaron
Your code and suggestion is way too complicated.
Just register your objects. When you need to
reload your module, destroy the existing
objects and re-creat them.
This works well assuming you have a stable

For example:
>>> eval(repr(1)) == 1
True
>>> eval(repr([1, 2, 3])) == [1, 2, 3]
True
>>> eval(repr({"a": 1, "b": 2,
