Hi, I have upgraded to python 2.6 and was getting depreciation warnings about os.popen3 etc so I changed over to subprocess.
os.popen3('nohup %s/core/kmotion_hkd2.py &> /dev/null &' % kmotion_dir) becomes .. subprocess.Popen('nohup %s/core/kmotion_hkd2.py &> /dev/null &' % kmotion_dir, shell=True) all is well except I now get nohup: appending output to `nohup.out' on the terminal which '&> /dev/null' used to ditch to /dev/null. I think this is because subprocess simulates the shell differently. Any idea how to ditch to /dev/null in subprocess ? Cheers Dave -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
