System V IPC primitives (semaphores, shared memory and message queues) for Python
Project description
Sysv_ipc gives Python programs access to System V semaphores, shared memory and message queues. Most (all?) Unixes (including OS X) support System V IPC. Windows+Cygwin 1.7 might also work.
Sample code is included.
