One console per process is fine, but I tried using 'cmd.exe',
'cmd.exe /K', and 'more.com' (fully specified in c/windows/system32)
as separate processes. The sign is the console window splashes up and
vanishes right away.
>>> p= subprocess.Popen( 'c:\\windows\\system32\\more.com', stdout= subprocess.P
IPE, creationflags= subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE )
>>> p.poll()
0
>>> p= subprocess.Popen( 'c:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe', stdout= subprocess.PI
PE, creationflags= subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE )
>>> p.poll()
0
>>> p= subprocess.Popen( 'c:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe /K', stdout= subprocess
.PIPE, creationflags= subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE )
>>> p.poll()
0
>>> f= open( 'temp.txt', 'a' )
>>> p= subprocess.Popen( 'c:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe /K', stdout= f, creatio
nflags= subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE )
>>> p.poll()
0

Writing my own process is an option. I did not try sysinternals yet.
