I went to write a script system using 3.0 and found that the SIGALRM signal and signal.alarm () were missing among many others when deploying Windows. Does anyone know why they are missing? Below is the dir () directory of signal packets 2.5 through 3.0 on windows. I did not find any 3.0 documents, but mentioning that it was moved
EDIT: do signals work in python25 on windows, they were removed in version 3.0. Should I rewrite my application as "where did they go or turned into", or is the release of Windows 3.0 not yet complete?
