     This function provides common scaffolding for creating subprocess.Popen()

     Parameters
     ----------
     cmd : str
       A string to be executed with the underlying system shell (by calling
     :func:`Popen` with ``shell=True``.
 
     callback : callable
       A one-argument function that will be called with the Popen object.
 
     stderr : file descriptor number, optional
       By default this is set to ``subprocess.PIPE``, but you can also pass the
       value ``subprocess.STDOUT`` to force the subprocess' stderr to go into
       the same file descriptor as its stdout.  This is useful to read stdout
       and stderr combined in the order they are generated.
 
     Returns
     -------
     The return value of the provided callback is returned.
