A note for Windows users Avoid using any of the `os.exec*` functions on Windows. There's no support for replacing a Windows process image, so the `exec*()` functions simply spawn a child process and terminate the current one. This is a mess in general because a waiting parent isn't aware of the spawned descendant. It's particularly bad for a console process that inherits the console session, since two processes will try to use console I/O simultaneously. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
