San <[email protected]> added the comment:
I get your point. But I thought setting 'stdout=PIPE' should not send the
stdout directly to the terminal but rather through the pipe first?!
Also what you're saying seems to contradict that this doesn't happen if I don't
set the encoding and let it be a byte-stream. In that case you get the full
byte-stream without any control-characters being executed.
In my opinion it is unintuitive that this is happening.
For instance if I open a file using io, that contains the same control
characters like so:
f = open('cc.txt', 'r', encoding='latin_1')
Then gladly this doesn't happen and the control chars get escaped using \x1b
which is what I would also expect to happen when using Popen.
