2 :mod:`mmap` --- Memory-mapped file support

10 Unlike normal string objects, however, these are mutable.  You can use mmap
18 A memory-mapped file is created by the :class:`~mmap.mmap` constructor, which is

50    mmap.mmap is the class itself.
52 .. class:: mmap(fileno, length[, tagname[, access[, offset]]])
55    file handle *fileno*, and creates a mmap object.  If *length* is larger
69    *offset* may be specified as a non-negative integer offset. mmap references

107    This example shows a simple way of using :class:`~mmap.mmap`::

117           mm = mmap.mmap(f.fileno(), 0)
135       import mmap
138       mm = mmap.mmap(-1, 13)
