M.N.A.Smadi top-posted:
this is the full error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./plugin.py", line 60, in ?
main()
File "./plugin.py", line 40, in main
os.system("/root/tmp/bibutils_3.14/isi2xml " + isi_file + " >
tmp_isi_xml.xml")
NameError: global name 'os' is not defined
Hmmm... I don't see how you'd get this if you're really importing the
os module (as you say above). Are you sure that you have 'import os' at
the top of plugin.py? You don't have any conditional wrapped around it
do you?

Can you give the full exception message (i.e. copy-paste it from the
output)?

Re: running programs from within python
am getting an error in the script as follows: NameError: global name 'os' is not defined however i dont get the same error when running from the python CLI. (and yes i am importing the os module) is this a bug in python 2.3 (the one am currently using) thanks m.smadi Steven Bethard wrote: M.N.A.Smadi wrote: M.N.A.Smadi wrote: hi; in general: how can i pass a string containing a concatenated sequcne of command line arguments to a unix system CLI? i guess i will answer myself: import os os.system(string) Also worth noting is that if you're using Python 2.4, you might want to look at the subprocess module, which replaces many of the older os.* calls with a more flexible interface.

hi;
in general: how can i pass a string containing a concatenated sequcne
of command line arguments to a unix system CLI?
my specific problem:
i have an executable that is called xyz (written in C if that matters)
that i cannot modify, which prints it is text output to the screen and
takes an input as t.txt.
on a unix terminal, i do the ./xyz t.txt > tmp.txt
so that the tmp.txt will contain the output of the xyz executable
i tried the following but it did not work
import os
os.execl("./xyz","t.txt > tmp.txt") #the thing just hangs there
i aslo tried
os.execl("./xyz","t.txt") # but it does not output anything to the
screen either, hangs there too
any suggestions?
thanks
m.smadi
i guess i will answer myself:
import os
os.system(string)
