/*
 /  Author: Sam Rushing <rushing@nightmare.com>
 /  Hacked for Unix by AMK
 /  $Id$

 / Modified to support mmap with offset - to map a 'window' of a file
 /   Author:  Yotam Medini  yotamm@mellanox.co.il
 /
 / mmapmodule.cpp -- map a view of a file into memory
 /
 / todo: need permission flags, perhaps a 'chsize' analog
 /   not all functions check range yet!!!
 /
 /
 / This version of mmapmodule.c has been changed significantly
 / from the original mmapfile.c on which it was based.
 / The original version of mmapfile is maintained by Sam at
 / ftp://squirl.nightmare.com/pub/python/python-ext.

Maps length bytes from the file specified by the file descriptor fileno,\n\
