Pieter,
I've found when I have questions like this, that thinking about how I'd
do it in C/C++, then searching on some of those key words leads me to a
Python equivalent solution, or at least heading down the right path.
In this case, I believe you'll find the "file" module helpfull. You can

Within a script on a *nix machine, I use os.chdir then os.popen, and it
appears to me as though the os.chdir had no effect so far as the
os.popen is concerned. Why's that? Here's what I'm doing:

'/home/jlooney'
>>> print os.popen( "echo $PWD" ).rea

I'll need to do more spelunking in my script to figure out what I'm
messing up.

The case sensitivity has to do with the OS you're on. So, using glob
from Un*x is case sensitive, but from Windows it isn't.

How do I get access to a data buffer in Python so that I can directly
view/modify the data? My buffer size is 256 (for this specific case)
bytes. Most of the time, I access want to access that data in 4-byte
chunks, sometimes in single byte chunks. How do I go about doing so?

I have written a Python script to duplicate the 'banner' program from
IRIX. Attached is the generated data file. This data is generated the
first time by using 'banner' on my IRIX machine. Thereafter, the data

I believe most programming languages evaluate 0 to mean False, and
anything else to be True (for the purposes of boolean evaluation).
Python is no exception.

Looks like you forgot to import EMR_globals, EMR_main, etc.

You could use:
import time
time.strftime( "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" )
or
time.strftime( "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", time.localtime() )
Output:
'2007-11-15 11:02:34'
Both strftime calls are equivalent, in this case.

There could be any number of issues in your code that could cause that
problem.
Can you post some of the code in question?

There are always tricks. If 5 characters is really too much to type,
how about 2 characters "s.". Though I would recommend against that

it violates standard Python convention.

I'm using SCons to build all kinds of things, and part of our build
process involves creating a "release" version of our software. In the
case of Python, that means compiling the .py into a .pyc or .pyo.
