another with execlp

[Donn Cave]

Quoth syt at pegasus.logilab.fr (Sylvain Thenault):

| I want to fork a process an exec python inside
| I have tried
|
| if os.fork() == 0:
|     os.execlp('python', 'myfile.py', 'myoption1', 'myoption2', 'myoption2value')
| else:
|     os.wait()
|
| but i obtain
|
| Unknown option: --
|
| from the python interpreter (and not from myfile.py)

Try os.execlp('python', 'python', 'myfile.py', ...)

The argument list starts at 0, not 1.
