Steven Bethard <steven.beth...@gmail.com> added the comment: The docs for os.chmod claim:
Availability: Unix, Windows. Although Windows supports chmod(), you can only set the file's read-only flag with it (via the stat.S_IWRITE and stat.S_IREAD constants or a corresponding integer value). All other bits are ignored. So at least according to the current docs, we should be okay calling `os.chmod(file_path, stat.S_IREAD)` on Unix and Windows (and of course OS X too). Is that enough or did you have other platforms in mind? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9509> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
