Hi, I'm a newbie, so please be gentle :-) How would I run a shell command in Python?
Here is what I want to do: I want to run a shell command that outputs some stuff, save it into a list and do stuff with the contents of that list. I started with a BASH script actually, until I realized I really needed better data structures :-) Is popen the answer? Also, where online would I get access to good sample code that I could peruse? I'm running 2.2.3 on Linux, and going strictly by online doc so far. Thanks! S C -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
