Use "import select" and read about it for more information (i.e.
help(select) within Python shell).
I advice you (and others interested in writing Python code dealing
with sockets) *very strongly* to read the following:
http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/sockets/
(Currently, I'm having trouble accessing that URL. I don't know if
it's my ISP or the the site is down.)
I hope that helps.
Ziyad.
