If I understand this correctly you have mainprog.py and subprog.py.
And you want mainprog.py to modify subprog.py such that when you run
subprog.py it swaps case of the output?
An easier way to achieve that would be to write a program that simply
translates its input into a swapcased output. Then you can redirect the
output of subprog.py into that program:
python subprog.py | python swapcase.py
Now, the fact that these are two python scripts rather than executables
complicates things slightly so you probably need to experiment with the
shell syntax to make it work, but that would be my approach.
