STINNER Victor added the comment: I checked how "xdg-open http://www.python.org/" works. It looks like the command works as webbrowser: create a child process "firefox URL", but then it waits until the command completes.
In fact, "firefox URL" exits quickly. So we can try "background = False" for firefox. Well, at least with my Firefox 46.0.1. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27069> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
