Interfacing my chess client with GNU chess using python

[Varun Hiremath]

Hello,
   I have written a chess client using python which is a graphic
   interface to play chess. It is at present a two player version,
   players move their peices by clicking two squares on the board as
   in any other chess clients. 
   Now i want to interface my program with the already available
   gnuchess program. Basically i want to feed the user input to the
   gnuchess and get the output and then display in my GUI. I have read
   about Popen but i couldn't figure out how to do it. Is there any
   other better ways of doing it. Any help would be appreciated.
