None. You should use the subprocess module in 2.4 (I really do hope that you're not using 1.6). http://docs.python.org/lib/module-subprocess.html It also works in Pythons as old as 2.2, but you'll have to install it separately. The website for the separate release is down at the moment, but when it comes back up: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~astrand/popen5/ -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
