To be picky you don't send the command to the Terminal but to the OS. But the output will appear in the terminal which is what I assume you mean... :-) > os.system(), os.popen(), etc. Also the commands module or the more recent subprocess module which is intended to replace all of the previous mechanisms eventually. See my OS topic in my tutor for examples of all of these. -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
