Summary: os.getstatusoutput on win32
Initial Comment:
Using:
Python 2.3.4 (#53, May 25 2004, 21:17:02) [MSC v.1200
32 bit (Intel)] on win32
i cannot run command.getstatusoutput since i guess it
expect a unix shell.
>>> import commands
>>> commands.getstatusoutput("c://usr//bin//echo")
(1, "'{' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande
interne\nou externe, un programm
e ex\x82cutable ou un fichier de commandes.")
i had to bypass it on win32 by using this in my program :
def _getstatusoutput(cmd):
"""Return Win32 (status, output) of executing cmd
in a shell."""
pipe = os.popen(cmd, 'r')
text = pipe.read()
sts = pipe.close()
if sts is None: sts = 0
if text[-1:] == '\n': text = text[:-1]
return sts, text

Closing. Nick: I borrowed your text for the various other
bugs/patches that ask for this (713428, 889949, 660505).

The commands module is going to stay Unix-specific. There
are too many potential issues with trying to support the
various win32 command interpreters.
It will eventually be deprecated in favour of a higher level
process management API. Hopefully that will happen in the
2.5 timeframe, but we'll have to wait and see.

Well, the docs for the commands module explicitly state that
it is only supported on Unix.
While two of the functions it provides (getstatusoutput()
and getoutput()) are trivial to provide on Windows, the 3rd
(getstatus()) has no equivalent that I can see.
I think I'll take this one to py-dev for further consideration
