Re: Script for starting private Tor networks

[ADB <firefox-gen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Whatever. People have Torcap for win32 if they want a GUI/easy config so it doesn't really matter.

 I tested it in win32, and it doesn't really work. Some system calls differ.
Here's the output:

Looks like a bug in the subprocess module shipped with Python 2.4. The
faulting line of code is in a big "if mswindows:" block, and is
passing the wrong type of argument to a win32 call.
