int `Py_FdIsInteractive`( | FILE *fp, char *filename)

  Return true (nonzero) if the standard I/O file fp with name filename is deemed interactive. This is the case for files for which "`isatty(fileno(fp))`" is true. If the global flag `Py_InteractiveFlag` is true, this function also returns true if the filename pointer is `NULL` or if the name is equal to one of the strings `'<stdin>'` or `'???'`.

long `PyOS_GetLastModificationTime`( | char *filename)

  Return the time of last modification of the file filename. The result is encoded in the same way as the timestamp returned by the standard C library function `time()`.

void `PyOS_AfterFork`( | )

  Function to update some internal state after a process fork; this should be called in the new process if the Python interpreter will continue to be used. If a new executable is loaded into the new process, this function does not need to be called.

int `PyOS_CheckStack`( | )

  Return true when the interpreter runs out of stack space. This is a reliable check, but is only available when `USE_STACKCHECK` is defined (currently on Windows using the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler). `USE_CHECKSTACK` will be defined automatically; you should never change the definition in your own code.

PyOS_sighandler_t `PyOS_getsig`( | int i)

  Return the current signal handler for signal i. This is a thin wrapper around either `sigaction()` or `signal()`. Do not call those functions directly! `PyOS_sighandler_t` is a typedef alias for `void (*)(int)`.

PyOS_sighandler_t `PyOS_setsig`( | int i, PyOS_sighandler_t h)

  Set the signal handler for signal i to be h; return the old signal handler. This is a thin wrapper around either `sigaction()` or `signal()`. Do not call those functions directly! `PyOS_sighandler_t` is a typedef alias for `void (*)(int)`.
