They're thin wrappers around the same C functions -- that's just how C works it is also documented: https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.execvpe > In either case, the arguments to the child process **should start with the > name of the command being run**, but this is not enforced. The pattern that I usually use is ```python cmd = ('bash', '--init-file', 'foo') os.execvp(cmd[0], cmd) # never returns ``` ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37066> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
