Hi All,

Can other people please verify this doesn't work on Windows?

start in your Zope checkout home...

E:\xx>python
Python 2.2 (#28, Dec 21 2001, 12:21:22) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from os import popen3
>>> (i,c,e) = popen3('c:\python22\python test.py')
>>> c.read()

...after hitting return, you'll see some processor activity, then it'll stop,
but the read() will never return.

The bizarre thing is that a similar command to fire off the Zope 2 tests using
testrunner.py works fine :-S

Any ideas?

frustratedly yours,

Chris
