The modules described in this chapter provide interfaces to operating
system features that are available on (almost) all operating systems,
such as files and a clock. The interfaces are generally modelled
after the Unix or C interfaces but they are available on most other
systems as well. Here's an overview:
- os
-
-- Miscellaneous OS interfaces.
- time
-
-- Time access and conversions.
- getopt
-
-- Parser for command line options.
- tempfile
-
-- Generate temporary file names.
- errno
-
-- Standard errno system symbols.
- glob
-
-- Unix shell style pathname pattern expansion.
- fnmatch
-
-- Unix shell style pathname pattern matching.
- locale
-
-- Internationalization services.
