What he said was: >...once the subprocess terminates (which it must have done for >p.stdout.read() to return a result) And based on the results of the examples I posted in my last post, it seems to confirm that no data travels through a pipe until a program on one side of the pipe has terminated. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
