1A simple module to expose the standard sem_* functions in Linux needed for 2using named semaphores. To compile, run: 3 4python setup.py build 5 6This will produce a namedsem.so file; put this file somewhere on your python 7import path and you should be able to import it as a module called namedsem. 8 9Before actually using this in python code, it really should be wrapped in 10something like the threading.Semaphore class. The module simply exposes the raw 11C functions with very little error checking. 12
