File attributes may be an issue to. Take look at the recipe at:

which ensures the file attributes are normal before you delete it.

For some reason, ocassionally when I see xrange, I think "But wasn't
that deprecated since range is now a . . oh wait that's xreadlines".
xrange is a cool thing the few times where you really need it.

I think you are right on both counts.
Given current filesystems, I like the #! method. I tend to like
approaches that have very low entrance access fees and can scale up.

There you should see python.exe with some other stuff, change it to

Then, in the future,
Python.exe starts up a windows console which gives you things stdin,
stderr, and stdout from the C runtime.
Be warned that you do not have those things with the consoleless(?)
pythonw.exe, stuff which MS intends for gui applications.

Issues of socket programming can be wierd, so I'm looking for some
comments.
In my python books I find exclusive use of socket.close(). From my
other readings, I know about a "partial close operation". So, I figured
it would be useful to post some code about how socket.close() has an

Thinking about cross-platform issues. I found this, from the venerable
Tim Peters to be enlightening for python's choice of design:
"It's possible to build a better Queue implementation that runs only on
POSIX systems, or only on Windows systems, or only on one of a dozen
other less-popular target
Cool Code!
One possible sticking point is that I think select only works on
network sockets on windows. This would make the code not crossplatforn.

It depends on what you mean by database.
If you want really fast I/O, try pytables.

manage very large amounts of data."
