Program execution from Python
The right module to use is subprocess. Older modules and functions that should be avoided are:
- os.system
- os.spawn*
- os.popen*
- popen2.*
- commands.*
Run command with arguments. Wait for command to complete, then return the returncode attribute.
retcode = subprocess.call(["ls", "-l"])
