| A simple module to expose the standard sem_* functions in Linux needed for | |
| using named semaphores. To compile, run: | |
| python setup.py build | |
| This will produce a namedsem.so file; put this file somewhere on your python | |
| import path and you should be able to import it as a module called namedsem. | |
| Before actually using this in python code, it really should be wrapped in | |
| something like the threading.Semaphore class. The module simply exposes the raw | |
| C functions with very little error checking. |
