Can you make do with the tempfile module? Or you'd need to identify
from an external process which console is locked?
Perhaps, I wrote a small hack:
- Manually set environment variable TTYNUMBER in .bash_profile
- Then use this in the script, to establish what tty I'm working with.
Thanks

Correct
(Which creates the problem)
Perhaps if you could explain your problem in greater detail?

You may be able to tell by looking at the DISPLAY

Hi,
I have a very simple problem, but I can't work out the answer. How do I
return the current tty number in python? eg. what function/module should
I use to figure out what tty my program was invoked from?
Thanks
