What are some other known limitations of PythonD?
– Although fcntl module is present, its function is very limited. Segment locking isn´t supported at all, and O_NONBLOCK is the only fcntl mode that won´t return an error. See DJGPP libc reference. – os.fork(), os.popen2(), os.popen3(), os.popen4() require a multitasking environment. As DJGPP runs in a single-tasking DOS environment, these functions are broken. posix.startfile arg must use *double escaped* backslash (‘\\\’) to represent a directory, or use ‘/’ on XP, eg: D:\\\mydir\\\somefile.doc = D:/mydir/somefile.doc But D:\blah or D:\\blah will not work – Multi-threaded socket scripts are untested. Non-networking threaded scripts seem to run fine. – Socketmodule does not support asynchronous connections. – Mouse support has been disabled in the Dislin module.
