This is a cool sample on how to write an automatic self-restarting python application after a timeout, of course you can modify this application to be much more sophisticated so it can close all open files before restarting or restarting based on a signal (SIGHUP maybe?) or whatever you like
#!/usr/bin/env python import os, sys, time def main(): print "AutoRes is starting" executable = sys.executable args = sys.argv[:] args.insert(0, sys.executable) time.sleep(1) print "Respawning" os.execvp(executable, args) if __name__ == "__main__": main()
