Or did you want to call the standard sort program? In that case you shouldn't call ./sort as it is in argv[0], but just sort (assuming '.' is not in your PATH) or the full path, like /usr/bin/sort. -- Piet van Oostrum <p...@cs.uu.nl> URL: http://pietvanoostrum.com [PGP 8DAE142BE17999C4] Private email: p...@vanoostrum.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
