In Python 2.4, use the new subprocess module for this. It subsume the
popen* methods.
Hi,
I'm a newbie, so please be gentle :-)
How would I run a shell command in Python?
Here is what I want to do:
I want to run a shell command that outputs some stuff, save it into a
list and do stuff with the contents of that list.
I started with a BASH script actually, until I realized I really needed
better data structures :-)
Is popen the answer? Also, where online would I get access to good
sample code that I could peruse?
I'm running 2.2.3 on Linux, and going strictly by online doc so far.
Thanks!
S C
