I think you're looking for:
import os
os.system("/bin/sh")

Then you need to open a terminal, like xterm or konsole. Use
os.system("/usr/bin/konsole")

Do you have an x-server running? I assume so, because you have a
terminal window opened.
If you became root using su, you need to allow connections to x-
server, which is started by the regular user. you can do this for
local access using
$ xhost local:

Maybe, but given that error message, probably not.
You would do yourself a great favor by providing a lot more detail
about what you are trying to do... On a Unix/Linux system, unlike
Windows, there is no one single "shell prompt window" -- there are
lots of them. They all need the X Window System (a suite of software
which provides a GUI interface to Unix systems -- it's not "built in"
like it is in Windows). X works as a client-server model, and you
need to make sure X authentication is handled properly. Depending on
what you are doing, this can be either very easy, or very complicated.

There are both lots of "shell prompt windows" (which, I assume
means terminal emulators), and lots of shells and other
programs you can run in such a window.

If this is literally true, then you just need to figure out what
command will open a terminal window from the shell prompt. Once you
figure that out, it's as simple as:
cmd = "whatever your shell command is"
os.system(cmd)

Could be it's not being passed the right DISPLAY setting. Is this under the
same username, so it's automatically using the right xauth settings? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Can anyone give me a snippet for running a python program over all the files

instead of running each of these files one by one, which would be cumbersome
giving the argv of each file every single time.
This can be easily done using a shell script but I just...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
