If the current working directory has spaces in it, the pstats to pipe will fail as the variables are not quoted. The pipes library correctly quotes the assignment of IN and OUT but the command needs to quote them:
Of course that will fail if there is a double quote in the current path, so an alternative would be temporary files or doing the interprocess plumbing but the quoting above does at least solve the situation where somebody is working in a directory with a space somewhere on the path.
Working in a symlink path doesn't help (which is what I do) as os.path resolves the path to its actual path in the filesystem.
