I just suppose to elaborate the latest line, as soon it's written on the pipe, and print some result on the screen. Imaging something like p= Popen(['ping','-c40','www.google.com'], stdout=PIPE) for line in p.stdout: print(str(line).split()[7]) I'd like to see something like *time=54.4* This is just an example, where if we remove the "-c40" on the command line, I'd expect to read the latest line(s), until the program will be killed. -- goto /dev/null -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
