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 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.
