demo.py doesn't work out of the box currently complaining about missing win32file module in backends\portalocker.py This code can be replaced with ctypes calls as shown at http://bitbucket.org/pchambon/python-rock-solid- tools/src/d2cca1ddac53/rsbackends/pywin32_ctypes.py - ready to use MIT licensed code.
