That was not on your posted example either...

[master.py]
import popen2
r, w, e = popen2.popen3('python -u slave.py')
w.write('command 1\n')
w.flush()
print r.readline()
w.write('command 2\n')
w.flush()
print r.readline()
w.write('\n')
w.flush()
print r.readline()
[slave.py]
while True:
line = raw_input().strip()
if not line:
print "bye!"
break
print "echo:",line
That works OK for me on Windows XP.
