From dc1bfdcd1a8af81885f1831c5e6dcfe5cf61372e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Sixt Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2007 21:47:55 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Use start_command() to run content filters instead of explicit fork/exec. The previous code already used finish_command() to wait for the process to terminate, but did not use start_command() to run it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
