In the CVS log of the mmapmodule.c, Tim Peters says: "The code really needs to be rethought from scratch (not by me, though ...)." Well, I might be the person to do the rethinking, but I'd first like to know what Tim has in mind. I've been playing around with this module lately and tend to agree that some enhancements could be made, particularly to prevent "bus errors" and "segmentation faults". The ability to have offsets into a file that are not multiples of the system pagesize would also be nice. I'd be willing to submit a PEP on a new mmapmodule, once I know what others would like. -- Paul -- Paul Barrett, PhD Space Telescope Science Institute Phone: 410-338-4475 ESS/Science Software Group FAX: 410-338-4767 Baltimore, MD 21218
