I am trying to use subprocess - it basically works but.

command = 'ping ' + '-n '+ str(count) + ' -l ' +
str(size) + ' ' + str(node)
print command
p = subprocess.Popen(command, stdin=subprocess.PIPE,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
pout = p.stdout.read()

This works for me but I see the Windows command window, is there a way
to call subprocess without a command window showing?

I am trying to replace:

fdout, fdin = popen2.popen4('ping -n '+ str(count)+ ' -l '+ str(size) +'
'+node)

Which did not show the command window.

I did quit a bit of googling bug so far did not find an answer to my
problem.

Appreciate any hints on how this can be accomplished.

Try:

p = subprocess.Popen(command, shell=True, tdin=subprocess.PIPE,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

was working on xp and osx
