Hi Jim,
close(filedescriptors$cpufiledescriptors[[1]])
close(filedescriptors$cpufiledescriptors[[2]])
close(filedescriptors$cpufiledescriptors[[3]])
I might be doing something wrong. Error is
Error in UseMethod("close") :
no applicable method for 'close' applied to an object of class "c
('integer', 'numeric')"
Thanks,
Mohan

Hi Mohan,
When you have opened connections as above, you need to pass the
connection, not just one element, to "close":
close(listoffiles$cpufiledescriptors[[1]])
