Hello Tutors, and Happy New Year and Holidays,
suppose I have an external program that prints "testing the subprocess
module"
I know I can run it through the commands module like this:

>>> a = commands.getoutput("python3.0 hello.py")
>>> a
'testing the subprocess module'
>>> len(a)
29
>>> b = a.split()
>>> b
['testing', 'the', 'subprocess', 'module']
>>> for word in b:
...     if word[-1] == 'e': print word
...
the
module
>>>

I cannot figure out how to do the same thing in the subprocess module. Can
somebody please explain how to get the same behaviour from, say,
subprocess.call
