Hi folks,
I want to write some kind of test to check at startup if another
instance of my script is already running.
I don't want to handle writing of a PID file because it is too
Unix/Linux specific way to do this, and I need to keep the code to be
cross-platform.
I think the better way to achieve this is to use some process control,
but I'm a neebie and I don't see how to do this in a safe and clean way.
Any idea ?
Best regards,
Strato
Here is a recipe for Windows version of singleinstance class:

and I wrote and contributed the equivalent Linux version:

Hope this helps.
