    Re: [Tutor] Replacing cmd.exe with custom .py application

    Joseph:
    Check out subprocess. The subprocess module is on python
    2.4. Also, use subprocess.call ("your command",shell= True)

    On Linux/Unix, the process is below

    import subprocess

    ret = subprocess.call ("dir",shell=Tr ue,stdout=open( '/dev/null','w'),stde rr=subprocess.S TDOUT)

    print ret

    You should get a return value of 0. Which means that it was
    successful. I'm still learning this myself, so some of these other
    guys might have more input.

    Instead of going to the command line all the time, I want to create a small
    customized cmd.exe of my own, how can I get the return value from
    os.system() because I was thinking I can do soothing with os.system(), In
    case my question is not clear, just like an IDE that plugged in another
    .exe application.
