[Python-checkins] CVS: python/nondist/peps pep-0200.txt,1.17,1.18

[Tim Peters]

Update of /cvsroot/python/python/nondist/peps
In directory slayer.i.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv1542

Modified Files:
	pep-0200.txt 
Log Message:
Closed the "test_popen2 fails under Windows" bug -- although I'm
only sure about that for Win98SE.
Moved the test_fork1 bug up to the top since it's the only
interesting std test failure remaining.

+          changed the popen2.py _test function to use the "more" cmd
+          when os.name == "nt".  This makes test_popen2 pass under
+          Win98SE.
+          HOWEVER, the Win98 "more" invents a leading newline out
+          of thin air, and I'm not sure that the other Windows flavors
+          of "more" also do that.
+          So, somebody please try under other Windows flavors!
