Don't use the shell, if possible, and replace whatever run.sh does with python code. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If you're using Python>=2.4 you could use the subprocess module. import subprocess child1 = subprocess.Popen(["./TestTool"], cwd="/home") child2 = subprocess.Popen(["sh","run.sh","load.xml"], cwd="/usr") Popen objects have a pid attribute. You don't have to use os.system to kill them; use os.kill instead. You'll notice that I leave out the final &, because I don't know how to start a background process without using the shell. But I think you can use: bg [pid], afterwards, to get the same result. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
