My program reads device paths like /dev/rdisk0 from input and then it looks in IOKit for a disk with the BSD name disk0. For this I have to remove /dev/r from the path.

I've been looking at hosted and non-hosted socket servers (SmartFox, ElectroServer, Photon/Neutron, ProjectDarkstar) and I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for services or implementation? Anyone have any idea of what...

Hi, As Android supports multiple devices from different manufacturers there are different screen resolutions supported. The table that is available at http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/practices/screens_support.... is not very clear to me.

Hello. I have a Python script that reads a file (typically from optical media) marking the unreadable sectors, to allow a re-attempt to read said unreadable sectors on a different optical reader. I discovered that my script does not work with block devices (e.g. /dev/sr0), in order to create a copy of the contained ISO9660/UDF filesyst...

Is it possible to view other devices that are on the same network in Python (or any programming language for that matter)? Edit: For clarification, what I'd like to do (just to start out) is to display a list of devices connected and their local IP addresses. So on my router, it'll show the info: family_pc, 192.168.1.2 work_laptop, 192...
