Sure enough, I now have to hit Ctrl-C repeatedly, once per invocation of script.py. While script.py is running, it receives the Ctrl-C, the calling process does not.
You misinterpret what you are seeing: the calling process *does* receive the ctrl-C, it just chooses to ignore it. This is documented behaviour of os.system. It you don't want this, then use the subprocess module, which does not behave this way. -- HansM -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
