Hello,

What is the correct way to implement cross-platform "flock like" file locking?

Specifically, how would i acquire "exclusive read-write" and "shared read-only" 
locks for a CGI script that I expect to run on both Windows and Linux servers.

Some other tutor may have a different answer. I propose you open(filename, 'r') or open(filename, 'w').
