2.7 is in bug fix only mode, and even that ends at the end of this year. This seems more like a feature request than an actual bug; it works, but not great with Unicode in some cases (which describes large parts of Python 2). It does look like Python 3.7 at least is using CreateProcessW already ( https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.7/Modules/_winapi.c#L1062 ), going along with the generally more Unicode-friendly vibe there. The subprocess32 module on PyPI performed backports from Py3's subprocess to Py2 for POSIX systems; perhaps talk to the author (gregory.p.smith, whom I have nosied) about backporting similar improvements for the Windows side of the aisle? ---------- nosy: +gregory.p.smith, josh.r _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36354> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
