"/dev/fd" is actually a somewhat portable way of getting this information. I don't think it's part of a standard, but on Linux it's usually a symlink to "/proc/self/fd", and it's available on MacOS and most BSDs (based on a hasty and completely-not-comprehensive investigation). But it won't help you find out when the FDs were originally opened, no. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
