Georg Brandl 7d108b8806 Bug #1766421: "return code" vs. "status code". 2007-08-23 17:57:53 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith 12e8fe63e2 doc update from HEAD. don't list "Unix, Windows" as a platform since that 
covers everything now that Mac OS 9 isn't a popular issue.

Andrew M. Kuchling d2ee30b485 Point users to the subprocess module in the docs for os.system, os.spawn*, os.popen2, and the popen2 and commands modules 2006-10-27 14:54:43 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers 9fc9789a0d Document that on Unix, the 'cmd' argument to the os.popen2/3/4 and 
popen2.popen2/3/4 functions can be a sequence. All texts are a variation on the
following:

On \UNIX, \var{cmd} may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
directly to the program without shell intervention (as with
\function{os.spawnv()}). If \var{cmd} is a string it will be passed to the shell
(as with \function{os.system()}).
