How about the fileno() method?
What about it? Do you mean 'non-blocking mode is entirely defined by the OS level read() behaviour and there is no tracking of that state higher up' ? If so cool (and we should document that somewhere).
Yes, I mean that :-) You're right, it should be documented.
I'll need to go lookup the windows equivalent to FCNTL, and I still think the current hidden buffer status is problematic.
Windows has no notion of non-blocking streams, except for sockets. Regards Antoine.
