        | 1.1  Changed write to look like other file operations and return a number
        | 1.2  Added threading test and fixed bug with read/write stats, improved inspection slicing
        | 1.3  Fix issue with stats printing if FIFO is not written
        |      Improve debugging if multiple FIFO instances used. Added idle timer

        **Usage:**
        ::
        
         import csFIFO
        
         f1=csFIFO()
         data="Message"
         f1.write(data)
         size=2
         data=f1.read(size)
         f1.purge()
        
         f2=csFIFO(max_size=1024*1024)
         f2.write("Hello World")
         if not f2.isEmpty():
           #Print some stats
           print f2
        
         #Non-destructive inspection
         print f2[:5]
         print f2[4:8]
         print f2[-5:]
         print f2.contents()
