Yes, sorry. This is what I was getting hung up on. My thinking was that subprocess was orchestrating it such that any reads would be funneled back into the Python object. Granted, that was my gut reaction to it. Thinking (and playing) with it a bit more I now realize that that makes no sense. Thank you for reminding me about the seperation of OS and Python files.
