In my (above) example, I really don't know which apps will be running, so I can't pipe the output to the app unless there is a way to grab the name of the app when I focus its window. (I don't know how to do this.) Further, stdout goes to the window where the python app starts, not the application window that I focus prior to clicking on button 1 or 2. When I focus an app window, is there a simple way to grab the app name? If so, as you suggested, perhaps a pipe would work.
