What about porting os.kill() to Windows (see my other post with changed subject line in this thread) ? Wouldn't that make sense ? (the os.spawn() APIs do return PIDs of spawned processes, so calling os.kill() to send signals to these seems like a feasable way to control them) -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Business: http://www.lemburg.com/ Python Pages: http://www.lemburg.com/python/
