<http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html>: If close_fds is true, all file descriptors except 0, 1 and 2 will be closed before the child process is executed. (Unix only). Or, on Windows, if close_fds is true then no handles will be inherited by the child process. Windows has no fork(2). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
