Best way to determine if a certain PID is still running

I'm launching a process via an os.spawnvp(os.P_NOWAIT,...) call. So now I have the pid of the process, and I want a way to see if that process is complete. I don't want to block on os.waitpid(), I just want a quick way to see if the process I started is finished. I could popen("ps -p %d" % pid)

The corect way is to try os.mkdir, catch the exception and check the errno value, which tell you why the call failed. If the directory exists, you can ignore the exception, if its another error, you usually had to raise it again and let the caller handle it. Example: import errno try: os.mkd
