Help with run command + variable.

[Daniel Holm]

Hi everybody,

I'm creating my first app (SixA @ http://www.launchpad/gsixaxis) and I have
gtk.combobox to chose a profile. When a profile is chosen I save the
profiles name as a variable, and now I want to combine a command with the
variable.

Lets say that the user choses th profile firefox. This should be exactly
like running: 'sixa action profile firefox'
So the command run by my python script should be something like: 'sixa
action profile $profile'
Where $profile is the chosen profile variable.

Here is the code:
    def on_profile_switch_changed(self, box):
        model = box.get_model()
        index = box.get_active()
        if index:
            profile = model[index][0]
            os.system("sixa action profile $profile")
            prf = pynotify.Notification ("SixA", "Profile changed to
$profile", "sixa")
            prf.show ()

As you can see I also have a notifications on when the profile has been
changed, which also shows the chosen profile.
How do I do either of these?
