Yes, but my os_path_fs_encode_decode-3.patch uses it in getenv() which is maybe a bad idea: os.environb may avoid this. > in msg104064, you claim that #8513 (which is about the program name in > subprocess) would benefit from these functions. Do these use cases > become invalid if os.environb becomes available? #8513 is also related to environment variables: subprocess._execute_child() calls os.get_exec_path() which search the PATH environment variable. It would be nice to support bytes environment variable in the env argument of Popen constructor (bytes key and/or value). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8514> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
