Guido van Rossum added the comment: Indeed, ptys and pipes behave very differently (that's why we have both -- they serve different purposes).
More relevant question: we should find a way to decide whether to either apply Antoine's patch or close this issue. Finally, maybe array.fromfile() can be fixed to deal better with short reads (if that's a real issue)? (However *empty* reads should still instantly stop it. Otherwise you end up busy-waiting.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5380> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
