capturing stderr && stdout

[Betancourt, Josef]

Agent:
I'm using:
    if on98 :
        program = os.popen(cmdl, 'r')
    elif onNT :
        program = os.popen('( ' + cmdl + ' ) 2>&1', 'r')
    else:   # this assumes Solaris...
        program = os.popen('{ ' + cmdl + '; } 2>&1', 'r')
    
It works,but stdout and stderr are both captured.
