Hi,

Grabbing the various docs of Python, I didn't find how to do this :

I Use popen2 to run wvware that transforms lots of M$ word docs to plain 
text. Sometimes wvware runs in a deadlock and I can't control this from 
  Python app.

I need to stop wvware processing after 30 seconds (considered 
deadlocked) and to process the next file.

Unfortunately, I didn't find any pythonic stuff to control the time 
spent runnning subprocesses (and kill'em if needed) launched with popen.

An hint is welcome. Many thanks by advance.
