You should give a go to os.popen( <system command here> ). Article
6.1.2 and 6.1.3 in the Python Library doc.
I recently wrote a program that would create a pipe using the popen()
method, and would enter a while loop. At each iteration, it would read
one line of the pipe output, and the loop would break when it gets an
empty line (indicating the running application is not running in this
case).
Example:
import os
oPipe = os.popen( "run C:/program files/my app/executable.exe" )
while 1:
sLine = oPipe.read()
print sLine
if sLine == '':
print 'No more line from pipe, exit.'
break
Cheers
