Hi!
>>> There are typically only two output streams from a command line program. >>> stdout and stderr... Some of the OS triggered error messages (abort, retry, fail) might be going to stderr -- so if you were looking at stdout, you won't see them. - when you use RD TOTO/S , win show the text "Are-you sure (Y/N)?" on stdout, and no stderr - when the text is send, by win, on stdout, there are no RC ; consequently, subprocess (or popen) don't see anything - it's possible, with popen4, with subprocess, to merge stdout & stderr in the same pipe The problem remain entire. @-salutations -- Michel Claveau -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
