R. David Murray added the comment: This was discussed in issue 6760. There I advocated (and still advocate) option (3). Unfortunately it looks like our doc update in that issue actually *lost* the documentation for your option (2) that used to be there, though it wasn't exactly clear what it meant when it was there.
So IMO we should do a doc update to add that info back in a clearer form, and also do a deprecation cycle to disallow shell=True with a sequence. I haven't ever gotten consensus from the other devs on the latter, though. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray stage: -> needs patch versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20344> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
