declaimed the following:

	Unlikely that there would be a standardized module for such as it is so
OS specific.

	ctypes and a good understanding of the Win32 system calls (maybe the
win32 extension library, though I get the impression this task goes deeper
than the functions that library exposes)

	{IOWs, you first have to determine how to do this using the OS provided
APIs, and THEN figure out how to access those from Python}
