I would appreciate help on two related questions: 1. Is it possible to cancel (kill) a "child" thread from the main thread in Python running on Windows?
2. Also, is it possible to cancel (abort) a blocking read (say, to stdin) in a function that can be called by a timer? The goal is to cancel the read if input is not forthcoming within a specified time. I have looked in the Python manuals and the Web, but did not find any thing. Thank you in advance. DKS
