* Rewrote the section on sys.exit(), documenting other argument typesGuido van Rossum1998-11-231-6/+18
| | | | | than integers and recommending sys.exit("message"). (I see this as Python's answer to Perls ``die "message";''.)

* Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() thatAndrew M. Kuchling1998-08-181-1/+29
| | | | | | | | | takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised when the main line of the program resumes execution. Is this guaranteed in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident? Also fixed a typo.
