os.fork()

[mixo]

What does 'os.fork' return?

Here is a script I have been playing with :

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

import os

l = os.fork()
print l

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This prints out two numbers, I was expecting
one. The first number seems to be the 'pid'
of the child process and the second number,
the exit status 'fork'.  The number I was
expecting is the exit status.
