In recent years, I've been disillusioned with bash and started using Python more and more where I would previously have used bash. Python's explicit syntax does automatically give you a level of security, but I must say the subprocess.Popen.communicate syntax is painful as hell. Your traditional one-liners turn into five-liners, and a casual observer will have a slightly hard time understanding what's going on. Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
