"None" is the default value for stdin, stdout and stderr, and means "do nothing and allow the child process to just inherit the descriptor from the parent". It doesn't mean "close the descriptor"; the only way to force a descriptor to be closed in the child is to use preexec_fn= and have the function close the descriptor. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
