execute another python script

[Alexandru Mosoi]

how do I execute another python script under a different process? I
want the script to be run using the same interpretoer as the one
running current script. I tried using os.execlp but I don't know how
to get the name/path of the interpreter.

If Python is embedded in another program, it's unspecified whether
sys.executable refers to the program or a compatible Python interpreter
(see the python-dev archives for discussions), but the above should work
in all cases if you're using a stand-alone interpreter.
