execute a shell script from a python script

Hi all, I know nothing about Python. What I need to do is to get a
Python script to execute a local shell script. I do not need any
output. What would be th eeasiest way to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Thanks

fails to call python from jython for types, functools, csv modules

[Joax Spec]

Hello I'm very new to python/jython, and trying yo *call a program from
jython*, which works very good in python.
I got some issues which resolve as I expose here, but I think these are
unsatisfactory solutions.
If you want to reply please do it to my address.

thanks,
Jx

PD. both are great projects!!!
