I have been hoping for a good solution to this. An easy way to handle simple commands is: #!/usr/bin/env python import os s = "echo foo | sed 's/foo/gap/' > file\n" s += "wc -c file\n" s += "cat file\n" print s, "***" os.system(s) ######## end (Apologies for the lameness of the commands above). However, I have some bash scripts that rely on things like PIPESTATUS, and I have no idea how to emulate that behavior easily. How can one most easily emulate a simple pipe as readily as in bash? I've seen a few recipes for doing something like that, but I haven't yet seen one that i really like. Is it possible to execute: os.system( " a | b | c | d | e") and retrieve the value of PIPESTATUS? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
