Running Application Within Emacs

[rshepard at nospam.appl-ecosys.com]

  My editor is emacs in linux, and I have the python mode enabled. The two
menus -- IM-Python and Python -- allow me to navigate within the loaded
module and open execute buffers, among other things. But, I don't see a way
to run a wxPython application from within the editor as I would from the
command line.

  Is this possible? If so, how?
