Are you specifying a buffer size in the Popen command? If not, then the Python side of things is unbuffered. It's possible that the application you are launching is buffering its output, so that it doesn't SEND until the application ends. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
