Hello, I would like to test that latex is installed on a windows, mac or linux machine. What is the best way to do this? This should work:
if os.system('latex -v'): print 'please install latex' but I dont actually want the latex version information to print to screen. I tried redirecting sys.stdout to a file, but that doesnt help. Is there a better way to do this in a cross-platform friendly way? Thanks, Darren -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
