ronny,
Well the fan control command turned out not to be in rpython, so it
failed to translate, but it still stopped the fan first. Here's an
example of a program that would not translate because it just enters
an infinite loop.
from time import sleep
def main(argv):
while True:
print "looping"
sleep(1)
return 0
def target(driver,args):
return main,None
main(1)
command to translate > python ~/pypy/translator/goal/translate.py
--batch --output loop loop.py
Regards,
Kirk
