Martin Panter added the comment: I think it might be better to leave the platform-specific details in the full Popen description, not under Frequently Used Arguments. I suggest to use 20344_4.patch:
* Move existing pointer to Popen constructor details up to top of section * Explain the escaping and quoting of a sequence only applies to Windows * Remove claim that a string simply names a program without arguments; appears to be only half true under Windows * Clarify shell=True command is normally a string, not a sequence * Drop new description of Unix shell argument sequence in favour of existing description under Popen * Move warning about Windows shell argument sequence under Popen ---------- stage: needs patch -> patch review versions: +Python 3.5, Python 3.6 -Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file39747/20344_4.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20344> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
