unixreg
why
While working on porting a python application to Linux I came across many uses of winreg that could not easily be ported over.
Instead of reworking the system I decided to implement a bandaid solution that deals with it transparently.
how to use
Update your winreg imports with this
try:
import winreg
except ImportError:
import unixreg as winreg
simply importing unixreg should be enough though, winreg is imported if found
