Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment: I was to suggest to use the PATHEXT variable instead of a hardcoded list of extensions, but does all this work at all?
For example, I added a "opera.bat" in my current directory. a browser named 'opera' was registered, but it did not start! >>> webbrowser.get('opera').open('http://www.google.com') False And indeed, the subprocess module does not start .bat files unless "shell=True" is given. ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4828> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
