Here's the equivalent of Peter's cute code in simpler form: cmd = [ 'convert', '-size', '%sx%s' % (width, height), 'gradient:%s-%s' % tuple(colors), # above could also be: 'gradient:%s-%s' % (colors[0], colors[1]), filename, ] subprocess.Popen(cmd) -- Aahz (a...@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "At Resolver we've found it useful to short-circuit any doubt and just refer to comments in code as 'lies'. :-)" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
