I don't think I understand. This already works:
>>> fd = os.open("Misc", os.O_RDONLY)
>>> os.fdlistdir(fd)
['python.pc', 'README.coverity', 'ACKS.orig', 'NEWS.orig', 'HISTORY',
'python.man', 'valgrind-python.supp', 'TextMate', 'python-config.in', 'NEWS',
'RPM', 'vgrindefs', 'svnmap.txt', 'python-wing4.wpr', 'gdbinit', 'build.sh',
'README.AIX', 'Vim', 'SpecialBuilds.txt', 'indent.pro', 'python-wing3.wpr',
'ACKS', 'README', 'README.valgrind', 'Porting', 'python.pc.in']
Is there anything you want to do on a "directory fd" except listing its
contents?
