I'm trying to do the following. I have a Python application that is run: python app1.py --location=c:\test1
What I want to do is save the location parameter, so I can then do (in the same window): python app2.py And have app2.py automatically have access to the value of "location". Now, the difficult part is, that in another window I want to do: python app1.py --location=c:\test2 python app2.py And have app2.py automatically get c:\test2 as the location. So the two windows (consoles) are isolated from each other. I thought I could use os.environ, but that doesn't save the variable for applications that are run afterwards in the same window. Any suggestions? Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
