Re: [Python-ideas] shutil.run (Was: shutil.runret and shutil.runout)

Right, security implications are one of the reasons why I've held back from proposing Shell Command. The lack of cross platform support is also a pain. This suggestion shares both of those problems. Having dealt with long running child processes lately, I can also say that producing output line-by-line would be on my personal list of requirements. So, yeah, interesting idea, but this is still an area that needs a lot of exploration on PyPI before we select an answer for the stdlib. -- Sent from my phone, thus the relative brevity :)
