Comment #17 on issue 872 by shamrin: remove dependency on pexpect and add support for Mathtex http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=872
Vinzent, I'm sorry... I haven't noticed it's Windows-only. There's a Python bug: "implement os.startfile on posix and MacOSX" [1]. In the discussion they mention "xdg-open" in Linux and "open" in MacOS. There's also a small patch[2]. So I suggest dropping current hard-coded viewer search logic and still use os.startfile for Windows. For other systems provide your own startfile implementation (using "xdg-open" and "open"). Well, if I am not mistaken, '&' doesn't work. Some googling gave me this: > start "window1" /min cmd.exe /c some_command_or_executable Why do you need a background process?
