New submission from coder.maliubiao maliub...@gmail.com:
the code:
import os,stat
mode=os.stat(a broken link file).st_mode
then i got :OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory.
why not just treat a broken link as something existing and don't report any
error.

Because we are doing what the linux stat call (and command) does . See man
stat.
