Can someone explain how I manged to import F_BLOCKS and F_BFREE? I want to do the same with pwd and grp: >>> gstat = grp.getgrgid(1) >>> dir(gstat) ['__add__', '__class__', '__contains__', '__delattr__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__getitem__', '__getslice__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__le__', '__len__', '__lt__', '__mul__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__rmul__', '__setattr__', '__str__', 'gr_gid', 'gr_mem', 'gr_name', 'gr_passwd', 'n_fields', 'n_sequence_fields', 'n_unnamed_fields'] >>> gstat[0] 'staff' >>> gstat[GR_GID] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? NameError: name 'GR_GID' is not defined What's the difference? It just seems that specifying the location in the tuple is not very clear or self-documenting, and using GR_GID is better.
