STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:
Twisted uses the following code (on UNIX-like OS):
def launchWithName(name):
if name and name != sys.argv[0]:
exe = os.path.realpath(sys.executable)
log.msg('Changing process name to ' + name)
os.execv(exe, [name, sys.argv[0], '--originalname'] + sys.argv[1:])
Twisted doesn't care if sys.executable is invalid when argv[0] has been changed. sys.executable is only used to change the process name (sys.executable is used before argv[0] is modified).
