Yeah, but just opening the file is more Pythonic than first checking
if it can be opened in the first place.

One way would be a try-except block, and leave the permission checking
error message generation, etc. to the operating syst

f = file('somefile', 'w')
then catch the exception that's thrown when it can't be done.

Those constants are in stat module so add "import stat" before the program.

inexplicable problems with modify permissions, say when I want to

Thanks, I will go the win32security.SetFileSecurity route. It seems a
pity that I can't use platform independant code to sort this out but I
