Yes there is one: yours!<br><br>From the Python doc: <br><b><tt class="function" id="l2h-1995" id="l2h-1995">getuser</tt></b>():<br>Return the ``login name'' of the user. Availability: <span class="Unix">Unix</span>, Windows.
<br>This function checks the environment variables <a class="envvar" id="l2h-1996" id="l2h-1996">LOGNAME</a>, <a class="envvar" id="l2h-1997" id="l2h-1997">USER</a>, <a class="envvar" id="l2h-1998" id="l2h-1998">LNAME</a>
and <a class="envvar" id="l2h-1999" id="l2h-1999">USERNAME</a>, in order, and returns the value of the first one
which is set to a non-empty string. If none are set, the login name from the
password database is returned on systems which support the <tt class="module"><a href="module-pwd.html">pwd</a></tt> module, otherwise, an exception is raised. <br><br>That's almost what you did in C++...<br><br>Cheers,<br>
