Greetings!

I am trying to lock a file so no other process can get read nor write access to it. I thought this was possible with os.open(filename, os.O_EXCL), but that is not working. I am aware of the win32file option to do file locking, so my question is this: what is the purpose of the os.O_EXCL flag?

Thanks for any help.
