twisted.internet.stdio module documentation

Standard input/out/err support.

This module exposes one name, StandardIO, which is a factory that takes an IProtocol provider as an argument. It connects that protocol to standard input and output on the current process.

It should work on any UNIX and also on Win32 (with some caveats: due to platform limitations, it will perform very poorly on Win32).

Future Plans:

    support for stderr, perhaps
    Rewrite to use the reactor instead of an ad-hoc mechanism for connecting
        protocols to transport.
