I wish there was a fromfile() function.
With Python 2.0 or greater, one can use mmap'ed files as arguments to fromstring.
Can you give me an example of how to use it? I can not get it to work at all, the docs are pretty sketchy. I can't even get a mmap's file to be created properly on linux. I havn't tried Windows yet, but I'll need it to work there too! Also, mmap does not seem to be supported on the Mac, which is where I am having memory problems (due to the Mac's lousy memeory management). I'll ask about it on the MacPython list. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. ChrisHBarker@home.net --- --- --- http://members.home.net/barkerlohmann ---@@ -----@@ -----@@ ------@@@ ------@@@ ------@@@ Oil Spill Modeling ------ @ ------ @ ------ @ Water Resources Engineering ------- --------- -------- Coastal and Fluvial Hydrodynamics -------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
