One thing that would help, to start, is make sure you are using the
pickleOutput option when you open the commandPort. That will make it easier
to receive values. Then, if you make sure to send just a single operation,
you should get back the result:
import cPickle
sock.send("import os")
#...
sock.send("os.getpid()")
ret = sock.recv(BUF)print cPickle.loads(ret)
