New submission from Mark Florisson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The docstring of os.setpgrp says 'Make this process a session leader.', but that's not what setpgrp does. setpgrp() is the same as setpgid(0, 0), which sets the pgid of the calling process to the pid of the calling process, thus making it a process group leader, not a session leader (it will still be in the same session). It might say instead 'Make this process a process group leader.'.
