No, you can't use the users shell from the pwd module. That can be
any crazy program. Not a functional /bin/sh for use in making
commands when shell=True in subprocess which is where this feature
request came from.
*system* default, not the user's. subprocess MUST use /bin/sh or
equivalent, ignoring any per-user setting. |
