This is incorrect; you can read from and write to the pipe as you wish. However: you may have problems if the child process buffers its output, which is the default behaviour for stdout when it isn't associated with a tty. On Unix, you can get around this issue using the pty module. I don't know about Windows; look into what "expect" uses. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
