I'm trying to display the output of an external process (invoked via
popen) in a Tkinter text widget. I successfully start the process (based
on what I'm seeing in my terminal output), but I can't get the output to
display in the Tkinter widget. It seems to block.
Any ideas? My code is below:
def runDump(self):
self.password.destroy()
self.passtext = self.passtext.get()
file = os.popen('echo %s | sudo -S /usr/sbin/tcpdump -v -i
en1' % self.passtext, 'r')
for line in file:
self.t.insert(END, line)
