Don't launch command.com, try running the actual program you are
interested in in capturing the text for. Although you should be able to
run the command interpreter too- I don't know why that didn't work.
There are several variations of popen, so
Thanks for the interesting suggestions!

Are you the one who is launching the Nethack program, or is it already
running, and you ar e trying to capture the text after Nethack is
launched ?
If you are launching it you can try using one of the python popen()
calls to redirect the screen output to your python program.

I'm pretty sure he's looking for a means of capturing

letting the user enter some textual input.
