Subject: [Tutor] system()? popen2()? How to execute a command & save its output?
To: tutor@python.org

I'm needing to transfer the following shell construct to Python, plus save the
output of execution:
FTP_SITE='ftp.somesite.com'
ftp -a $FTP_SITE <<EOF
binary
prompt off
cd /some_dir
dir
bye
EOF
Here, the FTP client accepts commands from STDIN, so all commands are saved in
a temporary file which is redirected to the client application.
I also need to save whatever output is generated. How can this be done in
Python?
Thanks.
Jim
