-except that:
-
-* subprocess.Popen raises an exception if the execution fails
-* the capturestderr argument is replaced with the stderr argument.
-* stdin=PIPE and stdout=PIPE must be specified.
-* popen2 closes all filedescriptors by default, but you have to specify
-  close_fds=True with subprocess.Popen.
