Have your first | python process invoke bash, giving it the arguments to in turn launch | the second python process. Why use bash at all? That requires painful and inefficient argument quoting, etc. Just invoke Python itself directly i.e. get subprocess to fork/exec (aka spawn) a new invocation of Python instead of using execfile. Dave, Cameron, Many thanks. I ran some initial tests regarding your suggestions, and things look good.
