I'm not sure that's quite true. On Windows, it's not the shell that splits up the command line into arguments, it's the program being run. So you need to avoid any kind of exec or spawn operation, whether it goes through the shell or not, unless you know the program being run isn't going to interpret '/' as an option. -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
