Replying to my own post.... I think I may have included too much fluff in my original question. The main thing I wonder is whether I can attach a log handler to stdout in such a way that os.system calls will write to that handler instead of the console. thanks, --Tim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
