Documentation

nadds

This library is a fork from Eunuchs Library.

I decided to fork a new library as Eunuchs seems to be abandoned as it became obsolete with python3.

Goals of nadds:

  • pypi installation
  • fix small bugs

Eunuchs (=Nadds) is a library of Python extension that complement the standard libraries in parts where full support for the UNIX API (or the Linux API) is missing.

Most of the functions wrapped by Eunuchs are low-level, dirty, but absolutely necessary functions for real systems programming. The aim is to have the functions added to mainstream Python libraries.

Current list of functions included:

fchdir(2)
recvmsg(2) and sendmsg(2), including use of cmsg(3)
socketpair(2)

Installation

pip install nadds
