Summary: commands module
Initial Comment:
In reference to the commands module, and it's simple self :-)
Current comments in the module state the following:
# Module 'commands'
#
# Various tools for executing commands and looking at their output and status.
#
# NB This only works (and is only relevant) for UNIX.
Ultimately, I would like to see the following:
1) This comment removed:
# NB This only works (and is only relevant) for UNIX.
1) A change to getstatusoutput along these lines:
if os.name == 'nt':
pipe = os.popen(cmd + ' 2>&1','r')
else:
pipe = os.popen('{ ' + cmd + '; } 2>&1', 'r')
* I was going to suggest having a more pythonic getstatus method, that would
act reasonably similar across platforms (maybe using some combination of
os.listdir and os.stat or something), however, it is being deprecated, so
onward!
