Subject: 'tahoe start': use import+call rather than find+spawn
X-Git-Tag: trac-4800~36
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/components/com_hotproperty/configuration.rst?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac3b26ecf29c08cb6342535be10b384d1ab3cf3d;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

'tahoe start': use import+call rather than find+spawn

This removes the need to use a locally-built (dependency) bin/twistd, and
removes a big chunk of behavior differences between unix and windows. It
also happens to resolve the "client node probably started" uncertainty.
Might help with #1190, #602, and #71.
