object oriënted
I know that python is an Object Oriënted language but I was wondering if it gets used as a non-OOP also (by a good amount of people). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
os.system('cls')
Hi there! I was searching for a way to clear the 'DOS screen'/command screen
etc. and found that os.system('cls') works for this. I was just wondering
where I can find al the commands which can be used for os.system(). I
searched with google but I didn't find an answer. In the official python
tutorial it says os.system('command') executes the command, but it doesn't
say which commands exist (or I'm just blind).
Does anyone have an answer for this question?
Thanks,
Devilly

Re: os.system('cls')
Hello Arno,
thanks for the explanation! I have one more question: on the python
site it says it's better to replace the system commands by subprocess
and Popen.
Now I searched for some good example for my specific case (as I have
no idea how it should work and I don't get it any clearer by reading
http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess)
and I found this:
> import subprocess
> def clear():
> subProcess.Popen('clear')
But it just doesn't seem to work. Would you have any idea how it would work?
Once more thanks for the first answer,
Devilly

Re: os.system('cls')
Btw...does that mean that system('cls') only works on Windows...or to
say it otherwise: the program isn't platform independant?
