Re: [Pyssh-discuss] (newb) Jython compatible?

[Travis B. <tb...@my...>]

Mark,

This is a linux machine I'm working on (Fedora Core 3).  The registry I 
was referring to was the Jython registry.  If I am thinking about 
signal in the right way (SIGHUP, SIGKILL, etc) then there is no 
equivalent in the Windows world as far as I know.

You say getpass and signal are standard python libraries.  I found 
getpass in /usr/lib/python2.3, but where does signal usually live?  As 
I said, a file search for "*signal*" didn't turn up anything that 
looked useful.

Thanks!


-Travis
