I spent half a day trying to convert this bash script (on Mac) textutil -convert html $1 -stdout | pandoc -f html -t markdown -o $2
into Python using subprocess pipes. It works if I save the above into a shell script called convert.sh and then do subprocess.check_call(["convert.sh", file, markdown_file]) where file and markdown_file are variables. But otherwise my piping attempts fail. Could someone show me how to pipe in subprocess. Yes, I've read the doc, especially http://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#replacing-shell-pipeline But I'm a feeble hobbyist, not a computer scientist.
