Don't use curses. Curses puts the terminal in raw mode (more or less) which doesn't translate the newline character into CRLF. If you use curses you are supposed to do all output through curses. But the os.system goes directly to the screen, outside of curses (because it is another process). You could catch the output of ls -l with a PIPE and then write the output to the curses screen with addstr. But a curses screen has a limited length, whereas your ls -l output may be larger so then you must implement some form of scrolling. >l> import curses, os >l> screen = curses.initscr() >l> os.system("ls -l") >l> curses.endwin() -- Piet van Oostrum <p...@cs.uu.nl> URL: http://pietvanoostrum.com [PGP 8DAE142BE17999C4] Private email: p...@vanoostrum.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
