Summary: popen2.popen2() 'cmd' list syntax docstring

Initial Comment:
This simple patch documents using popen2() with a list
as the first argument. Currently this feature is not
documented. It is good practice to use the list-popen2
as it avoids shell interpretation.

Please resubmit the patch in context or unified diff format.
 ed-format diffs generally won't apply when any other
changes have been made in that file in the meantime.

The same or similar documentation change should also be
applied to Popen3.__init__, Popen4.__init__ (which does't
exist yet), popen3(), and popoen4()

The line number in your version of the patch seems to
indicate that the change was made within the 'if
sys.platform[:3] == "win" ...:' block, which is where the
advice doesn't apply.
