Hi, I have a Python script where I want to run fork and run an external command (or set of commands).
For example, after doing <xyz>, I then want to run ssh to a host, handover control back to the user, and have my script terminate. Or I might want to run ssh to a host, less a certain textfile, then exit. What's the idiomatic way of doing this within Python? Is it possible to do with Subprocess? Cheers, Victor (I did see this SO post - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6011235/run-a-program-from-python-and-have-it-continue-to-run-after-the-script-is-kille, but it's a bit older, and I was going to see what the current idiomatic way of doing this is). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
