do you have w9xpopen.exe in place?

(iirc, mark just added the build files)

Heh -- yes, and I wasn't building them.

Now test_popen2 fails for a different reason:

def _test(): teststr = "abc\n" print "testing popen2..." r, w = popen2('cat') ...

Ain't no "cat" on Win98! The test is specific to Unix derivatives. Other than that, popen2 is working for me now.

Mumble.
