Two problems with using this:

1) It prints a damn annoying 'tha-thump' every heartbeat. Fixable, I know.

2) It only runs on Unix. ZDaemon is not used on NT (z2.py line 213: if sys.platform=='win32': Zpid='')

#2: the cross platform issue could be avoided by using the timeout ability of select() (which NT has, right?) and moving the heartbeat implementation into this area of the code. ------- Jordan B. Baker -- jbb@spyderlab.com weaving the web @ http://www.spyderlab.com
