In unix shell script I can do the following to get the status and values returned by a unix command
OUTPUT=`some unix command` STATUS=$? if [ $STATUS -ne 0 ] then exit 1 else set $OUTPUT VAL1=$1 VAL2=$2 VAL3=$3 fi How can I achieve the same in python? I know how to run it via the os.system command and return the status, but how do I return the values too? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
