anatoly techtonik <techto...@gmail.com> added the comment: I can confirm this but, but os.popen() is deprecated in 2.6 hence there is no point in fixing generated exception even though in a language that claims to be cross-platform exceptions should be unified.
I would add os.popen to keywords list for future reference and close this bug as "won't fix". There are many other bugs about os.popen on windows platform and people would be interested to know exactly why subprocess should be used. ---------- nosy: +techtonik _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue798520> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
