Hi,
lets uses the ls example:
the way you do it now implies, that you search your PATH variable until
it finds a
program called 'ls'. So if we are able to change the PATH variable, and
put out own
'ls' somewhere in the (new) paths, calling you ls() will execute
whatever we want our
own ls' to do.
Second remark: if the behavior of some tools is changed (for examples
with using aliases)
we cannot expect the called tool (in the example: 'ls') to give the same
output on
every system.
this can be avoided (mostly) by ensuring that the right program (in the
example /bin/ls) is called, and not only ls.
bg,
Johannes

Hi,
nice idea.
mybe - for security reasons - you should ensure, that the right tool
is called and not some tool put the path with the same name.

Aloha Python Users!
I made a Python3 module that allows users to use certain Linux
shell commands from Python3 more easily than using os.system(),
subprocess.Popen(), or subprocess.getoutput(). This module (once
placed with the other modules) can be used like this
import boash; boash.ls()
I attached the module. I plan to release it on the Internet soon,
but feel free to use it now. It is licensed under LGPLv3.
The name comes from combining "Boa" with "SHell". Notice that the
module's name almost looks like "BASH", a common Linux shell. The Boa
is a constrictor snake. This module makes Unix shells easier to use
via Python3. This brings the system shell closer to the Python shell.
