[New-bugs-announce] [issue37867] docs says subprocess.run accepts a string but this does not work on linux

[simon mackenzie]

New submission from simon mackenzie <simonm3 at gmail.com>:

The docs for subprocess.run say "The arguments used to launch the process. This may be a list or a string."

This works in windows but in linux it has to be a list. Either needs fixing or the docs need to be changed.
