Re: terminating an inactive process

if you have pywin32 then check out a download from MS download called script-o-matic2. it will write some boilerplate code that is usefull for killing processes. its wmi based but works nicely. i have a script that i run on my home computer if you want a sample. -- http://mail.python.org/mailma

Re: Python Google Server

The difficulty is 'on some other machine'... there's a fantastic python CGI proxy called approx - http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/cgi.shtml#approx The trouble is the current policy is 'whitelist only'... so I need the proxy installed on a server that is *on the whitelist*... which will take a l

os.path query functions behavior incorrect?

The docs for os.path.exists(), isdir(), and the like, do not describe behavior when an I/O error occurs. Testing on Windows XP SP2 with Python 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32, on a machine with no a: drive, c: is a hard disk with a top level directory nam

Re: re module non-greedy matches broken

a non-greedy match - as implicitly defined in the documentation - is a match in which there is no proper substring in the return which could also match the regex. you are skirting the issue as to why a matcher should not be able to return a non-greedy match. there is no theoretical reason why it

Re: re module non-greedy matches broken

a non-greedy match is implicitly defined in the documentation to be one such that there is no proper substring in the return which could also match the regex. the documentation implies the module will return a non-greedy match. the module does not return a non-greedy match. "Fredrik Lundh" <[EM
