Hi -- sorry for not searching first, but I get an NNTP error from
netscape (a known bug, still looking for workaround).
Inside a python script, I want to execute a UNIX command and
send the output to a Python string, returning the shell return
code value as an integer or exception.
I'm sure I could write a function using pipes and whatnot, but
I'm hoping this is a solved problem by now, more elegantly and
correctly coded than my hack job would be.
Thanks,
Jeff
Python rocks, btw. I've almost broken the #!/bin/ksh habit ;)

It's Unix-specific, but I guess you did say "Unix command"...

Thanks! Just what I was looking for ... don't know why I didn't
see it in the docs.
