Hello,
I'd like to propose formally marking os.system() as deprecated in the docs for next release of Python (v3.2 ?).
-0.5 on that. I often use os.system() for quick and dirty scripts that just call an external process without caring what the output is.
But perhaps os.system() should become an alias for subprocess.system() in 3.2, then deprecated in 3.3 and removed (from os only) in 3.4?
