Using os.popen with other python scripts

[Tom Bryan]

It works for me: Python 1.5.1, Solaris 2.5. (output below)
There must be a problem with your setup.

Does script1.py work from the command line?
Have you tried it in two steps?
temp = os.popen('script1.py')
print temp
x = temp.readlines()
print x



> cat script1.py
#!/opt/bin/python
print "this is a test"
> python

>>> import os
>>> x = os.popen('script1.py').readlines()
>>> print x
['this is a test\012']
