If I run the same Python command (without the setsid) as a cron job, I get False emailed to me. That's the effect I'm looking for.
In that case, all you need to do is redirect stdout: $ python -c "import sys, os > print os.isatty(sys.stdout.fileno())" >/tmp/xxx $ cat /tmp/xxx False You'll probably want to redirect to /dev/null and maybe you want to redirect stdin and stderr as well. -- HansM -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
