[issue7939] subprocess: call([arg, arg2], shell=True) vs call(arg+" "+arg2, shell=True)

[Brian Curtin]

Brian Curtin <curtin at acm.org> added the comment:

"This module also defines two shortcut functions"

I think given that we say the calls are shortcuts, and that their arguments are the same as Popen, I take that to mean that subprocess.call experiences the same situations as subprocess.Popen.

If any change has to be made, I could get on board with changing "two shortcut functions" to "two Popen shortcut functions".
