Summary: Redirect stdout in distutils.spawn
Initial Comment:
The attached patch (yeah, right) modifies
distutils/spawn.py to add the ability
to redirect standard output to a file, at least
on POSIX platforms. This would be needed for Barry's
patch to support shar as a Distutils output format.
Questions:
* Is this a good idea?
* Is the interface right? Should it take a
file object instead of a filename? (It therefore
always uses 'wb' mode, which may be bad.)
* Can someone contribute the required changes to
make this work on NT?
