Check if a file is closed

How to check if a file is closed?

On Win32 you can call CreateFile with write and share write and if it
raises an error, the file is closed.

How to do it in Python???

Thanks,
Camillo

On Linux you can read /proc to see which process has which file
opened, and if it isn't in there, it's closed.
