Hi All, Thank for the recent replies. I want to use the subprocess.run module b/c per the docs os.system is antiquated and cannot use more than 1 arg in 3.6. Why am I doing wrong below? Also couldn't I just copy and paste the subprocess code from github and create a file, but then how do I tell python this is a new module called os.system since this py file requires os.system and os.spawn* I am on AIX 7.1, python 3.6.2, pip 9.0.1
