Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Yotam Medini (yotam) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: popen2 returns (out, in) not (in, out)

Initial Comment: http://python.org/doc/current/lib/os-newstreams.html#l2h-1379 says:

popen2( cmd[, mode[, bufsize]]) Executes cmd as a sub-process. Returns the file objects (child_stdin, child_stdout).

But for me it actually returns (child-output, child-input). Or... is it a semantci issue? that is child_stdin - is "the input _from_ child?" Anyway - it is confusing.
