I was looking at Python 2.4 subprocess.Popen. Quite nice and handy, but I wonder why a "kill" method is missing. I am just adding it via subclassing,
class Popen(subprocess.Popen): def kill(self, signal = SIGTERM): os.kill(self.pid, signal)
but I would prefer to have it in the standard Popen class. I am surprised it is not there. Any comments?
Probably because it is not entirely portable. If you want a more complete, but Posix-only (at least Linux and FreeBSD), process management and spawning then you can use the proctools module in pyNMS.
