New submission from Nacsa Kristóf: The Python docs faq says that due to a bug in Windows NT's cmd.exe, the output redirection and piping won't work when started from file extension.
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html#how-do-i-make-python-scripts-executable http://docs.python.org/py3k/faq/windows.html#how-do-i-make-python-scripts-executable This is actually fixed in Windows, but the fix is disabled by default, and you need to enable it in regedit, the keyword is "InheritConsoleHandles". Proof & Details: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=321788 It would be great if the docs could refer to this fix, as the docs is the major source of information for many. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Installation, Windows messages: 170641 nosy: Nacsa.Kristóf, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Windows STDIN/STDOUT Redirection is actually FIXED versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15962> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
