I'm thinking of writing something similar to AFS commander on Mac OS X, but for Linux on the Nokia N800 series tables. The two major language choices for the platform are C and python. I'm thinking that python will let me get things done more quickly even though I don't know it vs my novice level of C.

My question is this: What are the pros and cons of writing code that links to the AFS & kerberos libraries to do things like getting tickets/tokens versus just running klist and capturing the input & output?
I forgot to mention that I think this would be a nice little project to help me learn Python.

Of course, all the C code to obtain the tickets and decide which
service principal to use and how to form the tokens and insert the
tokens into the cache manager, auto-register foreign pts identities,
and list existing tokens is already written.  You should have have
rewrite any of that code for the N8xx devices.
