Assuming you're looking at the docs for the os module, instead of the exec*() functions, check out the spawn*() functions, or, to use a subshell, system(). Better yet, take a look at the subprocess module: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-subprocess.html -Miles -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
