This is just common sense. I'm trying to avoid a poll() busy-wait section of code. I'll figure it out, but it would be much, much easier if wait accepted a number of seconds, and returned None if the process was still going (cf. Popen.poll() ). I'm much happier with subprocess than os.popen*. I'm also glad that Popen.kill() is slated for 3.0 . Since this isn't in the 3.0b3 documentation, I assume this either isn't fixed or planned? Are there implementation difficulties?
