I am writing a python program to start the programs that need to be
started after logging in.
I have the following imports:
from subprocess import check_call, Popen, STDOUT
from time import sleep, strftime
And use the following code:
check_call(tuple('wmctrl -s 10'.split()))
log_file = open('Logging/firefox_%T.log'.replace('%T', strftime('%F_%R')),
'w')
Popen(tuple('firefox'.split()), stdout = log_file, stderr = STDOUT)
The first statement is to go to the correct desktop.
Is this a good way to do things, or could I do it in a better way?
Apart from the other answer, your use of .replace is odd. This would be
better:
log_file = open('Logging/firefox_%s.log' % strftime('%F_%R'), 'w')
Even better would be to use the 'with' statement as well.
