The command used is:
let s:job = job_start("python test_channel.py")
It's not using a shell, only starts the python process. Is that correct
Manuel, you only see one kind of process?
If it's not the way it's started, it could be that Python on Mac
behaves slightly differently. Exiting a multi-threaded process may hang
if some thread still runs.
I gave it a try, and indeed seems like the python processes just don't
exit. Killing the processes from the command line works, I wonder why
Vim isn't able to kill them, calling kill() would do the same thing.
