Say, you've got an application that plays a sound for a few seconds, using an external program for that (beep, sox). If you close the application, you want the sound to stop as well. I don't know much about subprocess, not much more than what is in the tutorial : http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html (I don't know much about signalling either, I'm learning...) I naively thought kill() was the "normal" way. Then realized terminate() or even send_signal(SIGINT) would be softer. What would be a good approach, then ? Should I try something like this ? communicate(input="Ctrl+C") (I'd need to figure out how to write Ctrl+C...) Would that be cross-platform ? -- Jérôme -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
