As written in the PEP, if you want to be notified of the signal, set a signal handler which raises an exception.
I'm not convinced that this covers all possible use cases. It might be all right if you have control over the signal handler, but what if you don't? I think it's best if the functions in the os module remain thin wrappers that expose the OS functionality as fully and directly as possible. Anything else should be provided by higher-level facilities. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
